I would just love to hear the SPECIFIC rationale on how, in any way, shape or form, a Sarah Palin candidacy is “bad for the party”.

This estabishment doesn’t want a bunch of conservatives mucking up their agenda.

THIS POLL RHYMES WITH MITT

[Nonstatist]

Black voters are enthusiastic about all three potential bids, by a majority in each case. They don’t appear to be satisfied with the current field..

How many black voters are we talking about here? A couple dozen?

[Catsrus]

There really isn’t anyone now in the race who I feel passionate about. Sigh. We just might get another 4 years of the marxist at this rate.

[4rcane]

why is palin the only one that is being discourage to run, while all the other candidates who have much less support than she does are not. It sound to me, that they’re afraid that PAlin will beat the other candidates they prefer

[Diogenesis]

It is humbly submitted that the MAJORITY of conservatives
prefer Rasmussen and the MSM to commit Seppuku.

You've really reported a lot of negative stuff about Palin via Hot Air recently. Agenda?

[9YearLurker]

Anyone for any of the non-Palin candidates or potential candidates would think it bad for her to enter the race. Jeesh! Rasmussen seems to be on a stop-Palin bender.

[izzatzo]

You won’t hear one from the RINOs who run the party, they simply don’t like her, she’s a danger to their power base; and, they won’t give it up without trying their best to destroy her. They aren’t any different than the ‘rats/MSM who are terrified of her.

This poll is BS or that's how it will be proclaimed.

[ansel12]

My memory is that Reagan had to deal with the same, huge numbers of voters that eventually went for Reagan out of desperation for change, were a little afraid of him, and that fear lingered for the first couple of years of his presidency.

[4rcane]

if palin truly don’t have the support in the gop party, then she will lose the primary, so whats the big deal, let her run

[Longbow1969]

Just how many black Republican primary voters are there in the first place? When talking about the Republican primaries, I'm afraid the black voting demographic is entirely irrelevant due to a lack of measurable numbers.

[Paul Ross]

I am convinced that Rasmussen is deceptively skewing results to try and help the establishment. They are the same pollsters who claimed after the debate that Mitt Romney was still “#1” Yeah, right.

[SeekAndFind]

What I find interesting in this thread and other threads is this — FReepers would support Rasmussen when his polls support the desired outcome they want to see.

But when the results of a poll suddenly turns against what they want, they call BS.

[LibLieSlayer]

Blow it out your obama loving arse scotty. Who paid you to ask that question scotty? I miss your father Carl scotty... he had integrity... Mr. obama has 45-52% approval rating in my polling for over a year and a half now.
