“I think her strategy backfired, big time. Especially with Perry entering the race.”
LMAO
LMAO .. SarahPalinForPresident2012
If anything, Perry, with his large leads in Republican polls, makes it safer for Palin to run in the Republican primary because it would not risk the nightmare scenario of Palin running, conservatives nominating her as the preferable of two weak conservative hopes (Bachmann being the other) and then having Obama reelected in a crushing landslide. Such a nightmare scenario would finish destroying America as we have known it and would destroy whatever standing Sarah Palin has.
Palins reluctance to risk a run is based on cold, hard data. (See poll data below.) Shes a smart lady and a patriotic lady and she would never risk the continued destruction of America by helping get Obama easily reelected.
In the February 2011 FOX News Poll, 72% of all voters believed that Sarah Palin would NOT be a good President. Result: Landslide general election victory for Obama.
In the August 2011 FOX News Poll, 75% of all voters believed that Sarah Palin would NOT be a good President. Result: Landslide general election victory for Obama.
The Rasmussen Poll tends to have Republicans score better than they actually perform in the elections. In this weeks Rasmussen Poll, Obama absolutely slaughters Sarah Palin, 50% to 33%.. Result: Landslide general election victory for Obama.
Rasmussen Poll: Obama Does Best Against Palin, 50% to 33%
Over the past three years, Sarah Palin has had more news coverage than any other politician besides Barack Obama and, in the August 2011 FOX News Poll, her name recognition was 99%. That means that opinions about her solidified long ago and there is little room for change. With all the Sarah Palin news coverage over the summer, the only change between the February FOX News Poll and the August 2011 FOX News Poll is that the do NOT believe she would be a good President changed from 72% to 75%.
It would behoove some Palin supporters to spend less time LMAO and more time examining the cold, hard data that Sarah Palin herself is apparently heeding.
