Gee, WSJ, I’m sure the merciless pounding by the media — including your own resident RINO Peggy Noonan — had NOTHING to do with it.

Propaganda works on the sheep, apparently.

While both polls used a small sample, they also used the same sampling methodology.

5% MoE

Why wouldn't they? She allowed the Rino/Dem legislature walk all over her and has frankly done a terrible job getting any kind of message out.

I love her but she has a lot to work on.

Deepak Chopra probably vibrated Sarah’s negative image into reality.

Yes indeedy. But no matter. We love her, and we want her to run in '12, popularity polls be damned.

Compared to what we got in the WH, Sarah is a Saint.

It must be a little difficult to shout over the full-court-press of media attacks going on for the past year.

Not that a 2/3 drop in oil prices and related revenues/jobs/sales would have anything to do with the economy, either...

Not propaganda as the polling firm used the same polling and sampling methodologies in both polls.

One year ago, those of us in Alaska knew our governor as a person. I’ve worked with her. Alaska is a small enough place where most of us have run into her sometime or another. Our approval numbers were based on personal experience.

Then came the 2008 election.

Of course, the Democrats here are the same as Democrats everywhere. Once the call had been put out to slime Sarah Palin, they joined the pack. You should see the reporting in the largest newspaper in the state, The Anchorage Daily News. As soon as Sarah started running in the election, the paper went out of its way to slime her.

The professional class of liberal up here has also been proud to file complaint after complaint, often based on nothing more than a desire to see the words “complaint” and “Palin” in a story together.

Then there are just plain folks exposed to unrelenting lies about Sarah, such as the rally where someone yelled “kill Obama” - a complete fabrication, and yet I keep running into people who believe it. Same with the stupid “I can Russia from my front door” comment, made by Tina Few, yet often ascribed to Sarah. Some people are embarressed by the media depicting her as stupid, intolerant, and so forth.

All those numbers add up. And that’s the goal.

The left is evil. No doubt about it.

Unless she can command airtime, she really is largely at the mercy of the liberal rags. It would be interesting to do a poll of who likes/dislikes her versus where they get their news from.

Every day a new “ethics” charge is filed against her. I’m surprised they haven’t filed one against her for damaging state property by alleging Piper put her chewing gum under the desk.
