A Bloomberg News poll released Thursday shows trouble for the potential presidential candidacy of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
A vast majority of respondents viewed Palin unfavorably. Sixty percent had an unfavorable view of Palin, compared with only 28 percent with a favorable one. President Obama had a personal favorability rating of 55 percent with 41 percent viewing him unfavorably.
Two other potential Republican candidates for the presidency, businessman Donald Trump and former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, had low favorability ratings.
Trump was viewed favorably by 37 percent of respondents and unfavorably by 43 percent. Gingrich was viewed favorably by 28 percent and unfavorably by 40 percent.

You take one hell of a pill my FRiend. Obama has been whacked, and the one taking front and center is Palin.
Not so. I watched her 2006 debate. She was OK. But she really shined in that Charlie Gibson interview. He’s always been such a tough interviewer.
/s
Are you drunk or something?
The responses look like typical America to me.
You may have noticed that FR and the public at large don't seem to share the same views. Or not.
Exactly.
Good thing she isn’t a lib.
How did that 2006 election turn out, Falcon Boy?
The people who don't like her have been repeatedly exposed to her, and talk about her. People have basically formed their opinions, there are lots of people out that that just find her viscerally annoying, and their minds are going to be extraordinarily hard to change.
Terrible. The stupid Party selected Palin’s mentor.
As long as he stays away from drinking again.
Still trying to piss up a rope, I see.
You carry the water very well.....from the well of the democrats!
Most of these people would never have voted for her anyway.
Palin's strong unfavorables pretty well match Obama's favorables.
So our sworn enemy hates her guts. Isn't that a good thing?
Looks like they have a BS line-up ready to go. Not this time.
You use plenty of generalities but no specifics. It must be awful carrying around that kind of hatred. You are really to be pitied...
Here are a couple of more tidbits.
Who do you think has laid out a better vision for a successful economic future for the U.S.—
President Obama or the Republicans?
45 President Obama
33 Republicans
77% say that cuts should be made, but a government shutdown should be avoided;
64% think public employees should have the right to collectively bargain for wages;
More respondents think governors are unfairly targeting employee unions, than think public employees have generous benefits that states can ill-afford (49% to 46%)
63% think states should not have the power to break pension agreements on what current retirees should be paid.
Oh, and 44% self-identify as "Indpendent".
My ass, Bob.
Cheers!
She already said when asked on an interview recently about other things - she responded by saying that there 14 million people out of jobs.....etc.....etc... I’m going to focus on those things that are hurting the American people like jobs...debt...etc!
She isn’t going to get side tracked - she knows Obamas weaknesses and she knows what needs to be done
