Fox News' Brit Hume: ‘If the election were held today in my view, Barack Obama would lose. He might lose big’

(By Jeff Poor, The Daily Caller) - While many in the media and elsewhere criticize the current crop of prospective Republican presidential candidates and question whether any of them could pose a serious threat to President Obama, Fox News senior political contributor Brit Hume has a different take: he doesn’t seem to think that it will be a problem defeating President Obama in 2012.

On “Fox News Sunday,” Hume explained that the economic problems the country is facing could be problematic for the political status quo.
