Voters are more likely to believe Mitt Romney’s views are in the mainstream than extreme, but are evenly divided on President Obama’s views. 

Thirty-seven percent consider Romney's views extreme, 47% see Obama's views that way. Fifty-one percent believe Romney's views are mainstream, 44% deem Obama's views mainstream. After 3.5 years in office, more people are acquainted with Obama's views.
