President Obama earns his lowest level of support yet against a generic Republican in a hypothetical 2012 election match-up for the week ending Sunday, August 28. 

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely U.S. Voters finds the generic Republican earning 48% of the vote, while the president picks up support from 40%.  Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, and eight percent (8%) are undecided.

It sounds like the 8% could easily swade over to Repubs or Ron Paul. RTR!

Rasmussen has that poll every week. Obama dropped 3 points since last week.

I wonder if they call at random or the same ones each week? RTR!

I don't know. Rasmussen has the best polls in politics. Gallup asks confusing questions. Rasmussen lists his questions on each poll he posts. They are striaght forward.
