But they attack Obama constantly. Also he asked for his business experience to be hands off and thats what he is running on. And the Olympics he got fed funds thats how he saved it. lol

Likability is very subjective, of course. Every time I saw W, I wanted to punch him in the face. But your point is very well taken - Mitt really is a standoffish prick.
Obama really does seem like a likable guy. Probably because unlike Mittens (And W), he wasn't born a millionaire.
Studies have been done on rich people. Those born into wealth sometimes don't develop the skills necessary to get along well with others and to relate to the feelings of others - because they never HAD to. Most of us NEED to get along with others to get our basic needs met. We've had to develop sensitivities. We have to go on job interviews and know how to interact without offending the interviewer. People who have known nothing but wealth and privilege have always had their way no matter what. That's why they are so often douchebags. There are exceptions, of course.
