http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2779939/posts

From the poll results statement:

“Sarah Palin receives her highest unfavorable rating (62%) in this poll since CBS News began asking about her in 2008. And for the first time, more Republicans now view her unfavorably than favorably.”

On page 4-5 of the poll:

View of Palin:

Among all registered voters: 20% fav, 62% unfav
Among Republican voters: 36% fave, 39% unfav
Among tea party: 44% fav, 32% unfav.

Polls at this stage of the game are refuges for folks who prefer to remain blind to future developments. Polls at this time in 2007 indicated that Hillary was the clear choice of Democrats and that on the GOP side, McCain didn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell of getting the nomination. Polls are subject to, and used for, manipulation. You are being manipulated — or perhaps you are attempting to manipulate. Either way, your poll arguments are thin gruel at best.

After Ra^thergate, you trust CBS on anything WHY??

...and expect to be taken seriously on FR treating a mere poll by them as either honest or significant over a year before an election?

Cheers!
