Who was it, remind me, who was ahead of the curve on this? Who was it who called on her to gently appeal to the legalization crowd weeks before she ended up dropping that mini-bombshell on Napolitano’s show about marijuana laws being overenforced?
C’mon. I have, like, three good ideas a year. Give a man some props.
Among Republicans who say they’ve smoked Marijuana:
Palin 25
Gingrich 22
Huckabee 17
Romney 17
Paul 8Among Republicans who say they have not smoked Marijuana:
Huckabee 24
Romney 23
Gingrich 21
Palin 21
Paul 3
The sample size was only, er, 83 people, but even so, I’m intrigued to see her so far ahead of Ron Paul, whom you might think would have this particular market cornered. Either her brand as a western libertarian-ish type is stronger than we realized or pot-smoking is so mainstream even among Republicans that there’s no “fringe effect” when polling this particular demographic. When you sample a group of conservatives who’ve smoked weed, you end up with … a group of conservatives, not the pilots of the next “rEVOLution” blimp or whatever. Exit question: Which formerly lefty issue will a majority of the right embrace first, marijuana legalization or gay marriage?
‘To quote PPP itself. “Granted it’s a sample size of just 83 and her lead is within the margin of error but it’s still kind of amusing.’
The main purpose of PPP polling, to give folks a good laugh!
‘So why is the Kenyan not included in this poll?’
He is better known as a coke head, rather than a pot head.
I think the Hot Air article and the poll it links are being presented in a light hearted and humorous way.
The Palinistas, of course, are going to see it as a conspiracy of the Paul and Romney camps.
I'm glad someone gets it. :)
Unless she smoked pot last week, I don’t really care.
I wouldn't even care if she did.
At first water worked.
Then I had a little wine.
Then I tried the gold standard, a six pack of my favorite.
Then I tried all three and some nicotine gum.
Oh well, back to the drawing board...
LOL, you are looking for trouble with this :)
Thanks for the laugh. You think Palin smokes herself ???? :)
In Palin’s defense Republicans do not have a great choice of candidates and the thought of having to pick one of those five losers to go against O makes me sick.
Palin 25
Gingrich 22
Huckabee 17
Romney 17
Paul 8
I don’t like any of them!
Accepted with ease (((((napscoordinator))))) We’ve been good friends for years and all of us have off days. I’m very happy we’re back to normal!
Tee hee hee.
So Hot Air could rip Palin again. Without Palin Hot Air would be done.
