Has Palin actually become this unpopular in Alaska, or is this poll completely out of line with reality? Anyone in Alaska that can shed light on this?

I get trashed for saying it, but Palin cannot beat Obama.

the only time a poll of 500 people matters is if there are only 1000 people to begin with

When reading “poll results,” it’s always best to keep in mind the old, old apothegm that, “There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.”

There’s no way to know how the five hundred test subjects were selected; one may be fairly certain, however, that they’re NOT “typical” voters.

In other words, this is absolute bunk.

Just back from that Hellhole. I can see why. It runs on Federal handouts and Oil.

Personally, I think “The Alaskans” pulled the pollsters leg. They must have loved it!!

So she had an 88% approval rating while governor and now she couldn’t beat a slow motion train wreck. This just doesn’t smell quite right.

“The poll, by Hayes Research Group, had a sample size of 500 likely voters and a 4.4-point margin-of-error. “

500 voters from the University of Alaska in Anchorage?

Hayes Research Group,

Isn't this outfit a completely discredited polling company?

There is only one way to determine if Mrs. Palin is a viable candidate for President, and that is if she runs.

Until then it is all speculation and wild assumptions based on worthless polling data.

Oooh, 500 likely voters. I’m so impressed. Remember the polls that showed Hillary Clinton as the shoo-in Democrat nominee? I do.

Nothing to get excited about, it’s obvious they polled the same democrats who voted for the RINO Murcowski.

Democrats will vote for anything wearing a Democrat label. They would vote for a portable toilet that had Obama’s name on it instead of being marked “Women”

Outside of Fairbanks and Anchorage where the libs live, Palin is very and still popular....polling is very hard come by in Alaska since so many people live so apart from each other, there is no way Obama would win Alaska

Politico is the most distrusted news org right after the NYT. Ben Quayle says so...

Can’t you just smell the fear and desperation?

Heh....Sarah isn’t even in the race, but they have to conduct a head to head poll between Bozo and Sarah, just to show her who’s boss. No doubt, it was slanted HARD to make it come out like they wanted.

I don’t recall seeing a poll like this between Bozo and any of the other Republican candidates. Pretty telling, I’d say.
