47% of DEMOCRATS want a primary challenger for Obama
Usually, an incumbent US President doesn't expect to have a serious challenger in his party's primaries. In fact, the last one who did was Jimmy Carter in 1980, and he went on to lose the general election. Well, guess who may have a challenger in 2012.... Among Democrats, 47 percent say Obama should be challenged for the 2012 nomination and 51 percent say he should not be opposed. Those favoring a contest include most who backed Hillary Rodham Clinton's unsuccessful faceoff against Obama for the 2008 nomination. The poll did not ask if Democrats would support particular challengers.I wonder what those numbers will look like come Wednesday morning. Hmmm.
