We all know a friend with an embarrassing second initial but Barack Obama’s H is particularly problematic. Hussein isn’t the pollster approved middle name for a US presidential candidate but amazingly 57% of the electorate think that this will be a problem for him in the campaign, that’s 13% percentage points more than the number who fret about the quasi-dynastic nature of a Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton succession. This and many other fascinating polling numbers here, thanks to the Politico.
