She's just as capable and CERTAINLY just as qualified as Obama was when he was elected!

"Just as qualified as Obama" is not saying much for her.

A Field poll shows Gov. Palin at 33% favorables in the very liberal state of California.Susquehana shows Gov. Palin at 43% favorables in the swing state of Florida.So how does CBS/NY Times have her at 22% nationally? How can she be at 74% favorables with California Republicans and 73% favorables with Florida Republicans but at 44% nationally with republicans, especially condidering that the Florida and California Republican electorates don't really have a reputation as extremely conservative electorates/ considering that the Florida and California Republican electorates don't really have a reputation as extremely conservative electorates? It's clear that the CBS/NY Times methodology hurs her. By providing respondents with the option of choosing "undecided" and "haven't heard enough of," many voters favorably inclined towards her will choose either of those two options. Republicans, conservatives, and Republican-leaning independents are far tougher on their candidates than Democrats, liberals, and Democrat-leaning independents are on their candidates.

"Republicans, conservatives, and Republican-leaning independents are far tougher on their candidates than Democrats, liberals, and Democrat-leaning independents are on their candidates" --------------------------------------------------- Know why that is, "bassinapple?" Just LOOK at the type of candidates who run as Republicans........Palin, O'Donnell, Rand Paul, that crackpot maffia guy running for governor in New York, the "there's been beheadings in the desert" nutty governor of Arizona, the list goes on and on.....

WHat? why? majority dont want her to...why would you say this?

Her running would almost gaurantee victory for Democrats, that why.
by jwind1 October 7, 2010 9:46 AM EDT
Yea Dinkydog thats what I thought.....funny how democrats cant concentrate on winning on their own merits...if democrat doing a good job in office...it really shouldnt matter who they run against to get re elected....thats why you libs are losers in life...always need to bring others down to your level instead of rising up to a winning level.

Hey jwind1, where did you go to school? Learn to spell. No wonder you're for Sarah, same intelligence!

Agree...it's sad that even a measley 22% find her capable of doing anything other than taking their hard-earned money to listen to her hatred rhetoric and extremist ideas. She's in it for the money, plain and simple. What a bimbo.

your life would be the same whether she were president or not....nothing to get worked up about.

If people are complainging about the 22% being way to high then thank this administration. They are pushing this number upwards.

And you are delusional.... thank goodness the majority of Americans see that she is pure entertainment and joke fodder and don't take her seriously.
by patocc123 October 7, 2010 9:42 AM EDT
Delusional how? I was stating the more this administration fails the more the other side gets stronger regardless of who it is. I think you need to take off the visors and judges situations as they are instead of how you can make republicans look bad, blame them for everything and at the same time praise the democrats for doing no wrong and doing everything right.

It's kind of frightening that even that many (22%) see her as fit for any political position. She is supposed to be a leader? I guess that's what happens when money becomes the most important thing in a country; when even society takes a back seat to it. What have we come to, when even our leaders are bought and sold?

Probably the same 22% who think there are mice with human brains.

Go to show at least 22% of the US population is as stupid & clueless as Bimbo Palin is...

statistics will tell you that a lot of those 22percent voted for Obama in the last election
