We are a year away from the election, actually, 11 months, a bit too far out to draw any conclusions except for the obvious. Understand that Obama cannot win re-election unless he can repair this particular set-back. 60 million patriots voted against him in 2008. In the coming election, if that total rises to 68 million, Obama gets to take a permanent vacation.
The turnout for the 2010 midterms might be a forecast for what lies ahead. 56% of the electorate voted Republican and just 39% voted Democrat, in that election, nationwide. In 2008, Obama won with a 53% - 45% vote in favor of the Democrats. In round numbers, that "53%" translated into nearly 70 million votes with 61 million voting in the negative.
Point of post: the numbers have been against Obama for nearly two years, now. This post is simply confirming the fact that nothing has changed.
