You must keep your eyes awfully warm...with all that wool.  Actually Fox polls say the same things. As I said, I like her, but she has too much going against her to be electable, IMO. If I have to eat my words after Nov 2012, I'll be as happy as you are.

BTW, I'm not a Palin hater. I like her...just don't see her as a winner in a national election.
I just hope she's not the best choice next time. She was last time, by a long shot.

But that's the whole point.........your "opinion" has been slanted by what you read, see and hear from a liberally biased news media. If you "like" a potential candidate, you should support them rather than trying like hell to find reasons to explain why they can't win a national election. Ya' know??

She has negative poll numbers with women, hispanics, blacks, labor union members for starters, teachers...public employees... She poses too big a threat to the nanny state for these groups. She scares the hell out of them. A big threat to the nanny state and someone that scares the hell out of that Obama bunch you named, works for me. And what GOP candidates poll positive with that Obama bunch? Left leaning KOS polls have Palin slightly ahead of the other GOP guys. As Rasmussen puts it: �It�s a dead heat between Romney, Huckabee and Palin when likely primary voters are asked who they would vote for if their primary were held today.� Friday, November 05, 2010 A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of those voters finds that 82% have a favorable opinion of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, the party�s vice presidential nominee in 2008, while just 17% view her unfavorably. That includes 50% with a Very Favorable opinion and eight percent (8%) with a Very Unfavorable one. (To see survey questions wording, click here) Seventy-nine percent (79%) have favorable views of both Mitt Romney, former governor of Massachusetts, and ex-Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee. Seventeen percent (17%) hold an unfavorable opinion of the two men who ran unsuccessfully for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008. I keep saying these polls have very little meaning, seeing as how nobody is officially running yet. The only poll that counts at this time is the one they held on Nov. 2, 2010. Palin won.

 Thinking that they only post the ones that they agree with. I also posted and never received my email to confirm the posting. Surely MSN wouldn't manipulate their own polls to fit their liberal agenda.  GW

luv2safari, colspaul, et. al. - YOU may not think she can win, but the left sure as hell thinks she can. If they didn't there would be absolutely no reason for them to CONTINUALLY get worked up into a lather over what she did or didn't say, what she did, ect. etc. ect.
The left is scared to death of a woman who holds no office and controls NOTHING right now outside of her own house. The left will always tell you who they are afraid of, and they are afraid of SP. That's enough to tell me she could win and probably will. There isn't another republican that's even close right now, let alone a Dem.
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

I'm not that naive by a long shot. I worked on political campaigns for years and have a background that a great many don't. Again...another gratuitous assumption that I am "tainted" by the MSM. You forget that I was spot on about that nutcase, Sharon Angle. I told you and others she would lose soundly, and she did. When I find someone I feel has the right values, and appears to have what it takes to win, I'll work for them. Palin isn't that candidate. She will take us down in 2012. We can't take that chance. If she ends up our side's choice, I'll work for her. If she wins, I'll print out my posts and find some good sauce for them, as I eat the pages.

How many times do I have to say..."I like her, but I don't think she is electable"...? It seems pretty simple.

colspaul,
You sound retarded. that may be, but I'm smart enough not to be fooled by Sarah Palin You call that smart? How is she trying to fool you? Don't you really mean to say " you can't fool me; I'm too ignorant."
The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

So you said it.........now why don't you just shut up about it, instead of taking every opportunity you can on this forum to keep repeating the "Palin isn't electable" mantra over and over again......ad nauseum?? Sounds like you are you trying to convince yourself that it's true.........ya' know?

Wishful thinking, perhaps?
On Safari's part, that is.

She is battling uphill. As one pundit stated earlier tonight, and I paraphrase, the progressives on the left were ready to go after her for using a semicolon in her retort. Sarah barracuda is a tough gal though, she'll be just fine. Honestly, it was one of her best little speeches ever.

I'm not trying to pick fights here about her. You seem to take things so personal. We have the same political goals, just a difference in the starting lineup. I haven't seen a draft choice I would pick yet. You have. If you represent those who are trying to get her elected, you are going about it wrong. You can't insult anyone into voting as you would like.

Pamela Gellar at Atlas Shrugs:
Today Sarah Palin responded to the vicious blood libel leveled against her by the army of destroyers. The ferocious, relentless attacks on Sarah Palin are a testament to her greatness, proof of how deathly afraid of her they are, like Dracula to the silver cross.
�
We, on the other hand, cut and run when the lie about whomever is round the world, before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
I cringe when I hear conservatives and Republicans say Sarah Palin is not electable. Why? Because evildoers said so? Who cares? That�s what they want you to think.
How wonderful it would be to have a clear thinking, rational, proud patriot for president. Who else could possibly restore America back to her standing and respect in the world? I think Palin would be spectacular, one of the greats.
Michelle Malkin in part says:
Today, Sarah Palin issued her own poignant, but fierce rejoinder against the vicious smears of Tucson massacre opportunists and drew on �America�s enduring strength� to pay tribute to the victims.
They criticized her for not saying anything.
Now, they�ll criticizing her for saying something.

Bow, She sure came through today and hit a home run. There is no arguing that.

No matter what you may think of Palin, she says what she thinks...and what many of us are thinking...and not what the current wind is doing.
I like that. That's what scares the [bleep] out of the left and the moderate RINO's. She's too close to the true for comfort.

And they have been doing it for her for over 20 years. Don�t you know that Silly Sarah with her degree in Journalism can�t write a lick? She is the only politician that has to use speech writers? That her teleprompter was reflecting off her glasses? Answering this crap is like playing whackamole!
