According to a recent Yahoo and Esquire poll[1], if President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney decided to step outside, Obama would easily mop the floor with the former Bain Capital CEO. RELATED: Good News! Obama Ahead Of Romney In Five Swing States[2] While 20 percent had no opinion on the matter, 58 percent of respondents backed Obama, with only 22 percent believing that Romney could actually beat the President in hand-to-hand combat. And there is evidence to support the majority’s beliefs. Shortly after winning the 2008 election, the UK Telegraph posted[3] 50 facts most people don’t know about Obama. A master at the right-hook? President Obama owns a pair of boxing gloves signed by Muhammad Ali. Strong-man? The commander-in-chief can bench 200 pounds. Let’s not forget the basketball enthusiast that he is, which could translate into better stamina if he knuckled up with Romney. Having lived in Chicago’s rough Southside area, that’s easily another plus for Obama. Watch Obama’s training r ...
After being polled following the Democratic National Convention, residents in key battleground states favor President Barack Obama over leading GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney, according to the L.A. Times[1]. According to the most-recent NBC/Wall St. Journal/Marist University poll[2], President Obama is leading Romney five to seven points in key swing states: In Florida, Obama leads 49 percent to Romney’s 43 percent; in Virginia, Obama leads 49 percent to Romney’s 43 percent; and in New Hampshire, a poll conducted by WMUR-TV[3] shows President Obama leading 45 percent to Romney’s 40 percent.

These findings translate to the economy as well. Ohio reportedly has the worst perception of the Republican candidate, with 48 percent of Ohioans believing that Obama can handle the economy better than Romney, who has just 44 ...
On Wednesday, political provocateur extraordinaire Rush Limbaugh asked his listeners on his talk radio show, “What do the militant Islamists want more than anything in the world? Israel gone is right. Even moderate Islamists want Israel gone.” SEE ALSO:Simmons Looks To Change Jay-Z’s Mind On Occupy[1] The question was not posed for the sake of a genuine conversation about the lengths extremists will go to, to bastardize their faith in the name of pushing their own perverse view of the world. Unfortunately, sensibility is not Rush’s strong suit. Instead, Limbaugh threw that question out there[2] to introduce yet another one of his dense conspiracy theories that his audience salivates for: “What if Ayman al-Zawahiri and other al-Qaeda leaders gave up Osama bin Laden for the express purpose of making Obama look good? Giving Obama stature, political capital?” See what he did there? Rush is insinuating that President Obama winning re-election in November would aid in the end of the Israeli state ...
