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%.
Those numbers can easily be overcome in 3.5 years. We’re gonna have to raise about $1B to fight the 2012 campaign.
What a bunch of shi...uh, pelosi. By the time Obama gets done with his hopeless changes there just might be some democrats voting for Palin.
“We’re gonna have to raise about $1B to fight the 2012 campaign.”
True. Let’s start now! Donate to SarahPac as much as you can!
Pollsters lie. They’re trying to defeat Sarah, already.
Wouldn’t it be GREAT to have a Cheney/Palin ticket?
Goodness...the liberal elites are REALLY WoRRIED ABOUT PALIN! LOL She’s not even running and they are hyping polls...they must REALLY hope they can damage her before things get serious in few years. I wish um luck...they are gonna need it.
BULLSH*T! yawnnnnnnnnn, nothing here, move along.
They might think it’s an honor for him to go to ND, but most REAL Catholics, as opposed to pro-abortion CINOS, are very very offended.
“I know intelligent people who lead conservative lifestyles and like Obama. They are also Catholic and think it’s an honor for him to go to Notre Dame.”
I have found that some so-called “intelligent” people are dumber than dirt when it comes to politics and other subjects. A math professor can be brilliant, go to church and raise a lovely family and still be an idiot in the voting booth.
Doubtful. Did McCain sponsor this poll?
“Did McCain sponsor this poll?”
Might have. The McCains are probably still angry at Sarah because she took away their “stardom” (not that McCain really had it in the first place).
Bingo! Don’t believe this crap for a minute! Don’t the leftist pollsters ever get tired of telling us how we should think?
That is the exact result the left wants you to have.

I simply don’t believe it.
I tried to find out something about this poll and an analysis of the outfit which generated it. Nothing much.
Wonder who their sponsor is?
Don’t believe this crap.

Obama has been in office for what, 4 months..and Sarah is only trailing him in the polls by 8 points..
Math not your strong suit is it?.........
.....In a head-to-head match up, Obama would beat Palin, 53% to 41%.....
Some of the internals:
Internals, who needs internals...... They are always the key because weighting as you highlight can swing results by several points. We don’t know how they actually weighted this poll.
No surprise, the GOP has a significant number of liberals. In a two-party system, the two parties eventually merge. America is ripe for a big change. Not a third party, but a new conservative party to replace the GOP. We may have to wait another 4 years, after Obama beats whomever the GOP runs. It’s a pretty safe bet that the elitists who run the GOP will come up with yet another liberal who is soft on abortion, soft on social spending, one who makes the appropriate noises regarding taxes and national defense, blah blah blah, reaching across the aisle, but who supports continuing erosion of private property and private contract rights, if Obama has left any intact. In other words , a loser.
You forgot to include, “According to this biased and bullshit polling data”.
