Answers.com pronounces it with three syllables! I'm listening to it.
He says nu-cu-lar consistently. It has become a running joke and he has not cleared it up. That's the three syllable pronunciation that is wrong. It is no big deal to me as I am used to it by now. I'm just amazed that he has not corrected it.

Re: Obama polling over 50% now!
If I were running for president, or was the president, I would most certainly pronounce it as New-que-lear.
and i would explain I do it because it makes liberals crazy.
