I really don't think so. Obama's record is horrible by an objective standard. He's on par with Jimmy Carter.

So I'm watching this Frank Luntz focus group on Fox right now that is supposedly made up of undecided voters, most of whom voted for Obama in 2008. By an overwhelming margin, they said that they were not voting for Romney. Usually Frank Luntz does a good job, and usually focus groups are fairly reliable if properly selected (I've conducted them), but I have my doubts about this one. What surprised me was how they perceived that Obama was on the defensive most of the time -- that he had few answers for Romney's charges against his record. I guess the whole primacy and recency thing matters (Romney led off with an indictment of Obama's record if you remember and Obama didn't really defend himself at the start or in his closing remarks).

Yes if you include first half of 2009, no if you look at mid-2009 to the present.

I think the latter is more fair, conservatives would prefer the former.

I'm confused by what you mean here. Your plywood board theory would explain why undecided voters would eventually vote for Romney. But your first statement says the undecided voters, by an overwhelming margin, said that they were not voting for Romney. Did you mean that, before the debate they weren't going to vote Romney, but now they are? Or was the "not" a typo?

I don't really feel the need to relitigate stuff that has already been discussed ad nauseum in this thread. Go do a search if you have no idea what Obama has screwed up on.
