President Barack Obama looks primed to do a "better job" in his second term than he did in his first term, a plurality of Americans say.

According to a CNN/ORC poll out Thursday, 46 percent of Americans think the president's job performance will improve this time around, while 22 percent say Obama will do a worse job. Another three in 10 see Obama offering "about the same" performance as he did during his first administration.
