OK Freepers, who would you rather have dinner with, Sarah Palin or Lard arse Clinton? I rest my case.
Umm....
1) The poll wasn't limited to Freepers
2) FReepers comprise .0000 (you do the math) percent of the population of the country.
3) How does the fact that Palin is much more popular than Hillary on FR prove the poll wrong?
While there are methodological issues with how Gallup conducts this poll, it undoubtedly reflects reality.
What I've discovered over the years is people refuse to believe that ANY opinion they have is in the minority. That is, if a poll comes out where their personal view is in the minority in the poll, it's "proof" the poll is wrong. Is it some sort of ego/insecurity thing where people can't stomach the thought that they are in a minority?
Out here in the real world, anecdotally, Hillary is enormously popular, and the vast majority of the population either actively hates Palin, or doesn't take her seriously.
A couple months ago I was having a conversation with a co-worker (defense industry, he's a former particle physicist, he's a Republican, voted Republican for President from Reagan through McCain) who thought I was pulling his leg when I told him I read a message board where a bunch of people want Palin to run for President - he thought it was a joke.
I actually would rather have dinner with Clinton, so I could tell her what a drunken disgrace I think she is.. Right. to. her. face.
Ferraro was a lawyer and DA, then a 3-term Congresswoman before being nominated as Walter Mondale's VP candidate.
Palin was a city councilwoman and mayor, state commissioner and governor, before being nominated as John McCain's VP candidate.
Furthermore, Ferraro ran twice for the Senate and lost both times in the primary. Palin has yet to try for the Senate, but has already won a state-wide race once.
And yet, the Democrat Ferraro is afforded all the accolades while Republican Palin is mocked.

Conservatives think that it is a joke that you continue to troll at FR.
