Is Obama a Socialist? 55% of Likely Voters say Yes.

Barack Obama has been accused of being a Socialist since before the 2008 election. Now that voters have had time to observe him, 55% think it's true. He is a Socialist. As a special bonus, this poll was conducted by Democrats.

National Review reported:

The latest poll by Democracy Corps, the firm of James Carville and Stan Greenberg, has Republicans leading on the generic ballot among likely voters, 48 percent to 42 percent....

When asked about “a socialist,” 33 percent of likely voters say it describes Obama “very well,” 22 percent say “well,” 15 percent say “not too well,” and 25 percent say “not well at all.”

In other words, 55 percent of likely voters think “socialist” is a reasonably accurate way of describing Obama.
