Many Republicans Would Vote for Obama Over Palin (RINO Alert)
Political Wire ^ | 4/23/09

Posted on 04/23/2009 12:26:39 PM PDT by steve-b

A new Public Policy Polling survey has some interesting findings concerning Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R): While 76% of Republican voters have a favorable opinion of her, 21% say they would rather vote for President Obama if she became the Republican party presidential nominee in 2012.

In a head-to-head match up, Obama would beat Palin, 53% to 41%.

The survey also shows Obama beating Mike Huckabee, 49% to 42%, Newt Gingrich, 52% to 39%, and Mitt Romney, 50% to 39%.

Palin must scare the whiz out of 0’s handlers. The press seems to come up with a hit piece every day on her.

From your mouth to God’s ears buddy. I pray everyday that will happen. I will walk over hot coals and through volcanoes to get her into the White House. Sarah WILL be the first woman President in the White House and I will be there at her Inauguration, celebrating that glorious day with her.

21% in the polls makes news. So how many Democrats will not vote for Obama. How about starting a story talking about that

Pay attention to when the bashing occurs. Whenever something negative comes out about Obama, either being buddy buddy with Chavez or wanting to prosecute the Bush Administration, they create a diversion by trashing Sarah. Of course the left are terrified of her, they have been since August 28th 2008. They know the deal. They know the majority of McCain voters didn’t vote for HIM, they voted for HER and I was one of them. I went into the voting booth, found Sarah’s name and bubbled it in

If they are so sure of this then why not hold another election NOW?

I would vote for a pile of dog crap, running for President on the Gay-Nazi party line, over Obama.

Don't worry, after another 3+ years the ratio will be more like 90% Palin, 10% 0bama.

He's all show, no go.

GOP 12 said that is BAD for Palin.

Let me understand this: the number one celebrity in America (Stu Ronthenberg)is ahead of Sarah Palin by 20 points in the last PPP poll (55-35), someone who has virutally withdrawn from the national political scene in the past 4 and 1/2 months and was the losing VP candidate and in one month the latter has closed the gap by 8 points.

I would call that remarkable.

If GOP 12 claims this is bad, I wonder what good would look like.

The sooner you begin to realize this will never happen, the easier you’ll have it when the nominations roll around.

Define “Republican”....


Exactly! I don’t for a second believe any real Republican would vote for obama over any of these others - especially now, when it’s clear where he’s heading. This is beyond absurd.

“Amazing the amount of unadulterated crap coming out of the political spin machine these days”

Egsactly (sic), the people who tell us what to think by telling us what we think have everyone running in circles again. I think they just do it for sport on occasion.

“Sarah WILL be the first woman President in the White House and I will be there at her Inauguration, celebrating that glorious day with her.”

AMEN!!!!!! SO WILL I!!!!!

I’m gonna keep donating to SarahPac as much as I can and I will join her presidential campaign, when it kicks off. I will work my butt off, so she will be our President!

I’ll be at the inauguration, too! I don’t care how much it costs or anything! I WILL be there!!!!

Some think I’m insane, but I’m gonna keep sayin’,
“SARAH PALIN, 2012!!!!!”

No matter the definition I think this is showing amongst the four named that a strong candidate isn’t there. It’s still early and most likely someone not even on the horizon may well come to front and capture the nomination. It would be nice to see some fresh faces not associated with the past failed attempts.

Indeed. Even RINO would be too inaccurate . . .

—treasonous
—clueless
—brainless
—vacuum-headed
—terminally insane
—mind controlled
—implanted
—demonized

. . . would all be more accurate in any combination

1. It’s what they get paid to do. 2. It’s all they have to offer.

INDEED.
