what’s “positive intensity”?
The point of all these new and confusing “scores” is to hide the fact that Palin is more popular.
22% of ALL Republicans have a Strongly Favorable opinion of Palin.
7.25% of ALL Republicans have a Strongly Favorable opinion of Cain.
Only 29% of Republicans had any opinion at all of Cain.
Of that 29%, 25% had a Strongly Favorable opinion of Cain.
That .29 x 25 = 7.25%
If Cain was as well known as Gingrich (84%), and he remained as popular as now, including almost all Republicans, not just debate watchers hoping to find someone to bring it to Obama, he would still be below Palin in terms of numbers of Republicans with a strongly favorable opinion.
Palin - 96% x 23 = 22.06% of All Republicans Strongly Approve
Cain (if he gets as famous as Gingrich) 84% x 25 = 21% of All Republicans Strongly Approve.
Anybody else see the problems everybody else but Palin is likely to have?
By 2012 a Kangaroo could beat Obama. His policy is catching up to him and even his vaunted MSM Guard won’t be able to help.
Cain is not know by most Republicans.
Palin is known and I’d say based on that, 22% Favorability isn’t going to win any Presidency for her.
Palin went on the record in 2008 in a Univision interview supporting amnesty for illegal aliens. Add to the fact that well, she actually isn’t in the race and you may want to find a conservative to support who is in the race and opposes amnesty.
