60% Say Palin Run Would Hurt the GOP
Rasmussen Reports ^ | 9/2/11 | Rasmussen

Posted on 09/02/2011 12:33:40 PM PDT by CA Conservative

A plurality (47%) of Likely U.S. Voters believe it is at least somewhat likely that Palin will enter the presidential race, but that includes only 13% who feel it’s Very Likely. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 35% think a Palin bid is unlikely, but just five percent (5%) say it’s Not At All Likely. Eighteen percent (18%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Only 18% of voters think it would be good for Republicans if Palin entered the race. Sixty percent (60%) say it would be bad for the party, while 11% predict it would have no impact. Twelve percent (12%) are not sure.

Even most Republicans (52%) believe it would be bad for the GOP if Palin threw her hat in the ring, a view shared by 74% of Democrats and 54% of voters not affiliated with either major party.

Well, yeah.
I have no doubt Ubanga fears Perry a whole lot more than he fears Palin. This White House would party hearty if Sarah got the nomination.

THEY were not republicans to begin with... “THEY CAN GO THEIR WAY”... their way being progressivism.

All that I know is that I am a Hobbit terrorist... janet whatshername... the one that drags her knuckles when she walks... not janet el renio but nappytano... says that I am. Some angry black racist named holder said it too... and soros’ black lap dog sparky obama said it also... must be true!

I’m talking about the eventual nominee.

Oh right, you’re in California.

Never mind.

I hope that this poll is right. The gop is *not* a conservative political party, so why would I care what happens to it?

These polls will make amusing reading On January 20, 2013 as we watch Palin’s oath taking; they should do some more...

You guessed wrong again! I take Mr Ditter his coffee in the morning and he cooks dinner for me at night. Is that a deal or what? He is a fantastic Cajun chef. He has worn out his Chef Paul cookbook!

You all missed my reply to that post, I forgot to put in the /sarcasm tag. Not my best satire but it was meant to mock the haters...

If you read the rest of the threads you'll see that I am actually a Palin supporter...

I was trying to be silly and lighten up the mood before the crazies came in to attack us Sarah supporters. I don't think the Admins can add /sarc to the title but they could probably delete it, if you read the rest of my posts on the threads they aren't sarcastic and mainly me along with onyx, DJ and VR fighting off trolls.

Yeah I was trying to be a bit creative and completely forgot the /sarc. I guess my writing skills aren't what they used to be!

Then again you onyx and VR never said anything so I'm guessing you got the joke, I replied to myself to write "forgot /sarc" tag. Oh well, even if I put that down it would probably still confuse someone.

Well look at it this way, a lot more people will talk to you now. Maybe not nicely but you won’t be a wall flower. ;-)

Of course, but there is nothing like word of mouth. I have yet to find one person who has a sound reason for opposing Gov. Palin. These people are winnable. Bob

Excuse me, Steve Bannon had TOTAL control of this film; Gov. Palin had NO input. Cordially, Bob

I really want to see her as Perry’s Secretary of Energy.

I really want to see the Dept of Energy get closed down. We were doing better without it.

I think I’ll still wait to see what the Gov’s plans really are.

The rate Sarah's making a decision she may be running against George Z. Bush!
