64 Percent of Republicans Want Palin to Run in 2012
'Ninety-one percent (91%) of Republicans have a favorable view of Palin, including 65% who say their view is Very Favorable. Only eight percent (8%) have an unfavorable view of her, including three percent (3%) Very Unfavorable.

When asked to choose among some of the GOP's top names for their choice for the party's 2012 presidential nominee, 64% say Palin. The next closest contenders are two former governors and unsuccessful challengers for the presidential nomination this year -- Mike Huckabee of Arkansas with 12% support and Mitt Romney of Massachusetts with 11%.

Three other sitting governors - Bobby Jindal of Louisiana, Charlie Crist of Florida and Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota - all pull low single-digit support."



More nut cases around than I ever could believe!

6. No kidding ...

Hell, she wouldn't make it through the primary, which is sad, 'cause I'd just LOVE Obama to have to face her in four years.

11. The GOP know this too, that's why they're undermining her rep until she loses her popularity
with her base that are still 91% approving of her. These so-called "leaks" from the Repub side aren't happening by accident. There seems to be a concerted effort to undermine Gov-Know-Nothing because they seem to want Mittie boy to run in 2012 against Obama.

I think they're hoping to siphon off some of the Independents and moderate Repubs that have voted for our guy this time around.

Mittie would be the perfect choice, but in order to do that they did to destroy the "hot love" between their low-inform Joe and Jane Plumbers and Mooselini.

3. Oh lord, please make it so!
How badly would she get stomped by President Obama?


It would almost be too painful to watch. Almost.

4. 91% OF REPUBLICANS DON'T THINK
Edited on Sat Nov-08-08 03:19 PM by YEBBA
IT HAS TO DO WITH THE LACK OF CEREBRAL FUNCTION.

ALL HIND-BRAIN

5. Apparently, republicans have a high regard for ignorance, corruption,
and leaders that can't speak or write the English language properly.

7. 64 percent of republicans...
lets see.... (show your work!) 64% of 42% equals 29.44%.

That means her approval rating is 2.44 points higher than Bush!

She'll need the Supreme Court for sure, but she's in with a chance!

10. Don't know who took that poll
But I think they only polled the right wing wackos to get those kind of numbers!

The only ones who really like her, besides Rush the pervert, are the religious right, and they like her because they want her to put theocratic law into place when she becomes the president! They want the "end of times" to come as soon as possible, even though the majority of them don't know that Palin and her religious wackos think that the whole country will be coming to Alaska when the big tribulation hits because they believe Alaska is a "sanctuary" for those who survive. Now call me crazy, but if God was going to chose a "sanctuary" I don't think would be picking he coldest place in the U.S. as that sanctuary!

Sadly many of the religious voters know nothing at all of her religious views, they just think she is one of them! Once they find out, I am sure many of them will not be so happy to have her as their leader. Of course the powers that be in the republican party are not going to allow her to get that position, thank God!

hospital? That's Plain's base.

15. And last I saw, 62% of AMERICANS thought she wasn't ready to be VP
I think her chances of being re-elected as governor of AK next time are in doubt, never mind her chances of winning anything nationally.

But Palin for President is a concept we should pretend frightens us.

So they do it.

19. Crack?
They should be so lucky. My guess would be crystal meth. I think it should be mandatory for all Republicans to be force fed crystal meth breakfast lunch and dinner.

America should treat Republicans the way Hitler treated mentally handicapped people.

Wow! Am I angry or what?
