POLL: SARAH PALIN HAS HIGHEST FAVORABILITY RATING AMONG GOP PRIMARY VOTERS
Breitbart ^ | Wednesday January 29, 2014

Posted on 01/29/2014 8:20:02 PM PST by Bigtigermike

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;

Like most Palin supporters you like to blow hot air.

I am not impressed.

The fact that you couldn't think of anything off the top of your head shows that she hasn't accomplished anything recently.

I know she likes being in reality TV shows and praising McCain on her facebook page.

No, I am not too lazy to look, the question is a rhetorical one, she hasn't had any recent accomplishments, none at least that make her a good Presidential candidate.

Amazing how you Palin supporters love to insult those who point out her flaws.

Shows a very thin skin.

She will continue to lead you guys around by the nose during this election cycle as well.

Well, since she is a big McCain supporter, she must be an Amnesty supporter as well (according to your warped logic)

No, Palin's support of McCain is after the fact of all the damage he has done to this nation.

My support of Walker is based on his overall record, not every particular political view he has.

It is amazing how normially rational people like P-Marlow, xzins and yourself lose your minds over this woman.

First of all, ping the members you talk about.

Secondly, you obviously didn’t read and don’t read her valid and sharp criticisms of the Senator’s political views with which she takes issue and starkly departs from him.

You also assign to him far too much power. That lone Senator has not been able (thank God) to inflict any sort of “damage” to this country that you have so assigned.

He is not Barack Obama or even John F. Kerry.

As I said, amnesty can be stopped by conservatives in the House and Senate.

That's naïve, ftD. A pro-amnesty president is not going to push anti-amnesty. And the idea of an anti-amnesty house and senate is dreamland.

And if you had it, their pro-amnesty president would veto it.

And Palin accomplished something as Governor — a 1700 mile natural gas pipeline that will soon be the envy of energy producers in the lower 48.

3 years and with financial cause, since Alaska law didn’t protect its governor from lawsuits.

I gave you a long list of accomplishments, so did onyx, and you refuse to acknowledge them as accomplishments.

You would be a liar if you said they wouldn’t make you a proud father to have your daughter accomplishing the same things.

You see? This is exactly why I refused to do your homework for you. I knew you'd find some way to make me or Sarah responsible for your ignorance.

And even though Onyx gave you all the data, you're ignorant still, because you didn't read a single word of it.

Now, stop talking to me, troll.

Ahah! Recent accomplishments. So, you admit she has some prior accompliahments. You may not be as ignorant as you initially appeared...

Ask a rhetorical question, you get a rhetorical answer...

I refuse to consider those to be accomplishments worthy for someone to be considered for President.

That was the issue being discussed.

As for the issue about lawsuits, somehow I can't picture Reagan or Thatcher leaving office due to lawsuits.

Now you’re just arguing to argue. You used to be more logical than that.

So, asking what recent accomplishments has Palin had that makes her a legitimate Presidential candidate is illogical?

I think you are unable to answer the question.

I answered the question in spades off the top of my head with a list approaching a dozen items.

Well in that list I didn't see anything that like she qualified to be President.

I saw that she was a good wife and mother.

That’s disingenuous, ftD. You know I mentioned politics, media, business, consulting, etc.

Was Newt Gingrich on your list last time around?

You mentioned nothing that made her qualified to be President.

She has done a reality show and made money.

I think Newt's political achievements are a bit more than Palin's.
