If six or more variables get checked off against the party in power, the opposing party wins.
American University professor, Allan Lichtman recently predicted Barack Obama will bag the 2012 election.
The latest Gallup daily tracking poll has President Obama's approval rating continuing to hover at 40%.
For many people facing natural disasters and a turbulent economy, this indeed has been the summer of discontent. Perhaps none has felt that malaise more than President Obama, whose approval rating continues to hover at its record low average of 40%, according to the Gallup daily tracking poll released on Tuesday.

I think he'll be re-elected. The republicans look incredibly weak at this point.
