I do not believe in ANY of the polls, regardless what they say about my candidate, top or bottom. I have held this view before I have ever heard of Sarah Palin, going back atleast 10 years.

The “science” of political polling is dead a long time ago.

ALL the polls have an agenda, from Fox to Ras to Gallup and including all others.

The only difference right now is that Rep establishment and the MSM has teamed up to push Bachmann particularly hard, this is a shared goal of their`s...and their ultimate goal basically boils down to keeping Gov Palin out of the race...

You can laugh if you like while Chris Matthews, Meet The Press, NY Times and even Rachel Maddow/MSNBC/CNN push MB.

I believe 150 % what I just wrote.

Gov Palin is who they fear

Ras removed Sarah`s name from the last poll that showed her surging...I hope you are aware of that.

Zogby poll is not posted at any of the so called trusted polling sites...RCP for instance

As I said I do not trust any polls, they all have a agenda, whether or not my candidate is on top or bottom.

Hey your opinion is fine, I personally do not believe in any polls, but for those that do believe in the science of political partisan polling , explain to me this....RCP and other sites wont even post the ZOGBY POLL?

The guy is a partisan, really they all are, but even the MSM polling outfits consider ZOGBY to not be credible.

And the only other poll that shows MB surging is Ras who took Gov Palin`s name off for that poll.

I actually emailed Ras about it, he responded and even said it was just for that 1 poll that he removed Palin, that she would again be in future ones...happy to copy email to you if interested.

I respect your poll notations.But the media pushing Bachmann because they fear Palin is the most ridiculous notion I have ever heard. Bachmann and Palin’s politics are identical.I don’t think Matthews knew Bachmann was a Fed Tax Attorney. They can’t call her stupid and ditzy any longer. Like it or not Bachmann did very well in the debate.And I really think that either right winger lady makes them cringe but they cringe less with Bachmann?

Could you tell me why Palin trademarked her and her daughters name? Palin would make more money speaking and doing shows. I think the bus tour was smartly twofold 1-to promote her and her daughter’s books 2-to test the POTUS 2012 run.I think Palin is waiting to carry star status and be begged to run or she is toying with a third party run. Either way she currently has little independent voter support.

If she would announce and debate she could possibly come out the winner but book writing is on her mind.

Only one person has gone from being a sitting congress critter directly to the white house. I don't think any other has even become a party nominee.

Nice try though......

Ford was closest, although it took an appointment, a resignation, plus he was Speaker of the House, not just an ordinary congresscritter.

Maybe you could try a couple of guesses as to why this is so true, congresscritters don't become nominees.

“Last but not least , why is the leftist media all of the sudden helping Bachmann. All of the sudden they are giving her good press ...just like McCain.”

I should have read some posts before I posted my last one.
This is my main concern. I think we are being set up again and have been since RR was “forced” to accept the evil CIA globalist Bush as his VP.

The media plays the people like a fiddle.

[”Someone who knows the energy industry like the back of her hand.”]

Oh, and since you keep exaggerating Palin’s “qualifications” here are the facts about her actual Oilfield experience;

(SOURCE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Palin) [Governor Murkowski offered a number of other jobs to Palin, and in February 2003, she accepted an appointment to the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which oversees Alaska's oil and gas fields for safety and efficiency.[68]

Although she had little background in the area, she said she wanted to learn more about the oil industry, and was named chair of the commission and ethics supervisor.[1][68][70]

By November 2003 she was filing non-public ethics complaints with the state attorney general and the governor against a fellow commission member, Randy Ruedrich, a former petroleum engineer and the current chair of the state Republican Party.[68]

He was forced to resign in November 2003.[68] Palin resigned in January 2004.]

10 months experience, is not what we call “Somebody who knows the Oil Industry like the back of their hand”.

But, nice try anyway. Happy exaggerating.........

Ooooooooh, Bristol is the secret Mitt conduit in the Palin family. Must be the work of the tri-lateral commission and the banking cartel........Or even the Freemasons or Knights Templar......

You are so hung up on Bachmann being in congress. Who cares! This does not validate someone who is not even running.

Well, there is always a first time, and the VP claim, since I clarified the conditions, still stands true. So, since you are so into pointless trivia, according to your criteria, Palin is in big trouble.

Below is a typical bot post.

Oooooh Bachmann Romney and CHRISSY MATTHEWS have super secret plans to oust Palin because you know SHE WAS THERE FIRST AND SHE STARTED THE TEA PARTY and I am WRITING IN PALIN'S NAME even if she does not run. NO ONE IS MORE EXPERIENCED THAN PALIN. GOD TOLD HER TO MAKE MONEY AND WRITE BOOKS AND BUY A BUS AND RUN. I HAVE AN ALTAR IN MY CLOSET FOR HER.

Not at all, she was never a VP.

There are lots of reasons why the congresscritter thing is not just trivia, rather it's a general truth.

Perhaps you could think of a couple......it's really easy when you stop being a cultist......

I'm not hung up on her being a congress critter, it's a fact.

Why do you think Mike Pence is running for governor and not the white house this year? He's arguably a far better candidate than Bachmann.

Answer: Because he understands the problem of congresscritters not becoming nominees.

Maybe Palin’s people understand that people who write books and make reality shows; trademark their name for public speaking contracts, with zero appeal to fiscal conservatives and independents; would maybe make an excellent energy secretary drill baby drill or possibly VP so that is why she is not running.

Do you have an altar in your closet? Maybe you need to run out and buy new flowers and breathe some fresh air? LOL

See? You just don’t listen very well. I said, not one who has been VP, but who was listed as VP to a losing candidate for the Presidency.

Besides, it’s all very pointless to base outcomes on idiotic trivia. Only a fool thinks that elections are determined on this sort of stupidity.

Who ever wins, wins. The past statistics is for losers Nothing more than that. Like Yogi Berra says, “Congratulations! I knew the record would stand, until it was broken!”.
