If the bus tour put her in the lead, imagine what the emails will do :)

[Jeff Head]

But...but, they were going to destroy her with those emails! Go Sarah Go!

2012 will not come soon enough for me!

Sarah Palin Surprisingly Leads 2012 GOP Contenders After Bus Tour

Surprising lead? How can it be surprising. This woman is out there pushing hard for the country and hitting Obummer. Of course her numbers are doing better. The party is dying for people to step up and start this process of firing this POS President already.

The way FNC has been going lately I don't give a Fox News commissioned poll any more credibility than a CNN-commissioned poll.

FNC is trying to appeal to moderates and is going downhill fast.

You can’t buy free press this cheap.

i love how the liberals refuse to accept historians opinions tha tgov Palin was 1005 correct about Paul Revere.

[Rational Thought]

What makes Palin's lead in the poll strange is that the poll was conducted over the past weekend -- after she made the Paul Revere gaffe. The poll was taken from Friday to Monday. Palin made the gaffe on Friday and then made things worse by telling Fox News' Chris Wallace Sunday that she wasn't wrong with her statement that Paul Revere warned the British. She then attempted to convince a clearly amused Wallace (and the viewing audience) that the famed American colonial revolutionary and Boston silversmith rode through the streets of Boston warning both the colonists and the British that the British were on their way to take away their guns and freedom.

Another outright lie. There was no gaffe and Wallace acknowledge he had Googled the statement to confirm Palin was correct. This clown Norman Byrd is a Bird Brain.

They’re going to “scandalize” and “railroad” her right into the oval office! She must be laughing and rubbing her hands together as we speak.

[Judith Anne]

There is nothing surprising about Palin being in the lead. Frankly, the way the entire media is, I would bet Palin’s REAL numbers are a lot higher than anyone is willing to admit.

God bless Sarah!

Poor stupid Byrd still hasn't read Revere's own words, warning the British soldiers that held him captive about the alarmed countryside. After all, Revere's purpose was to give the Brits pause in order to protect the principals Hancock and Adams whom Revere left a scant hour before at the Hancock-Clarke parsonage a stones throw from Lexington Green. Revere made it a point to warn the British soldiers according to the historian David Hackett Fischer. His book, "Paul Revere's Ride," is a great read and will prove to you that Paul Revere earned his poem.

This is going to make Liberals’ and Big Media’s heads explode.

LOL...Romney fatigue already lol.

Sara Palin in the Left’s worst nightmare, and they are betraying their abject fear that the sane voters in the GOP may nominate her.

Stopped reading there. No sense inflicting the ravings of a lunatic imbicile on myself.

B T T T ! ! !

RUN SARAH, RUN!

Good Lord, 2nd. Sarah has been proven to be right and this author continues the spin? I guess the old adage is still apt for the media, liberals and Democrats: Ya just can’t fix stupid.

[Patrick1]

Isn’t this an example of the media picking the GOP candidate with a bogus poll?

[2ndDivisionVet]

If that were the case, wouldn’t all or most of the polls show her winning? What good is only one poll that looks like an outlier? And why spend two and a half years attacking her?

[Patrick1]

Just asking for consistancy from conservatives. A poll that shows your candidate ahead is a great poll. While the one showing the other person ahead is a grand conspiracy to force RINOs upon us.

[MestaMachine]

“And despite the fact that most Republicans won’t vote for her,”

This is who saying this?
