Though former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin was not included in a Public Policy Polling survey of potential 2016 Republican presidential contenders, she was still overwhelmingly the most liked person among Republican primary voters. According to Public Policy Polling:
The best liked person we tested on this poll with Republican primary voters is actually Sarah Palin who has a 70/20 favorability rating. She's followed by Huckabee at 64/18, Ryan at 58/18, Paul at 58/21, Bush at 56/18, Cruz at 45/20, and Christie at 40/38. Most of those numbers are similar to what they were a month ago but Christie's seen a substantial drop from +18 at 47/29 a month ago to his new +2 net favorability.
The left-leaning polling outfit asked Republican primary voters, "Given the choices of Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, Bobby Jindal, Rand Paul, Marco Rubio, Paul Ryan, and Scott Walker, who would you most like to see as the GOP candidate for President in 2016?"
Huckabee led among the group with 16% to 14% for former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush; 13% for Chris Christie;

Gee, that’s 3 posts without mentioning a single accomplishment, unless you consider running on the same ticket as McCain as an accomplishment.
And she became a millionare since she left her Governorship?
If one holds public office one should point to something they did in that office.
I see Palin supporting one of the worst reprobate senators, McCain, and you guys still blind to the fact that she is shallow.
You are blinded by a pretty face and conservative rhetoric.
None of her supporters can seem to point to anything she has actually done in the last few years except do speeches and keep her faithful followers tangling over the hope that she (a momma grizzly) will rescue the U.S.
It isn't going to happen, she likes doing reality shows and giving speeches.
Most of the money she has made has come from doing what she went to school to learn how to do. WRITE. FWIW she is a much better businessman than I ever dreamed of being. Xzins listed all of her "accomplishments" and you ignored him.

In America today, the less someone does when they are in public office, the better it is for the public at large.
You are blinded by a pretty face and conservative rhetoric.
PISSSANT is that you? Have you retreaded into FTD or is FTD just channelling you?

To her list of those who she helped get elected we can add McCain and Hatch.
You have listed that she is a star in a reality show-that is an accomplishment?
Since she left her Governorship, two years before her term ended, she has made a nice living off of conservatives.
According to Senator Ted Cruz, himself, he wouldn’t be in the US Senate right now, without her!
No one is 'bashing' Palin, just wondering what you guys see in her?
If someone else had come out defending McCain like she did, you would be ripping him to shreds.
But she can do no wrong because she says the right things.
If you guys think she is going to run for any other office, you are going to be sorely disappointed like you were last time.
I rememeber how she kept you all waiting for her 'big decision' and here she is doing it all again!
I was thinking "thick". :( Oh well, Sarah Palin's detractors do serve to bump the thread along.
sarah has my vote, far above any other contender, most of which I won’t consider republicans!
I think you are the one who is blinded by her beauty.
No, it's because she DOES the right things with great effectiveness.
A lot of people say the right things but that's where it ends.
Yes she got elected Governor and than deserted her office!
And save me the excuses about the lawsuits.
I don't deny she isn't a good woman, but that doesn't mean she should be President of the United States.
And then supporting McCain on her facebook page after his own State Party denounced him?
She is suppose to the be the darling of the TeaParty?
Actually, I could see how trying to point to any real recent accomplishments by Palin would be boring-there are none.
You've been here since 2001, so you are obviously being dishonest about never having seen Palin's accomplishments listed here, over, and over, and over, for idiots just like you.
For the non-reader like yourself, you could try watching Bannon's documentary "Undefeated".
Stephen Bannon went to Alaska to produce a few clips of interviews with people who had known and worked with Palin. Bannon was so impressed after a few of those interviews that he instead decided to produce a feature film about Sarah Palin, and provided $1 million of his own financing.
You could also read her books, but all the information in the world wouldn't help someone with your level of PDS.
Real gutsy leadership there.
Yes, s/he is being dishonest.
A very quick perusal of the member’s forum posts shows that s/he rarely misses an opportunity to slam Sarah Palin.
