Two-Thirds of Republicans Still Support Sarah Palin

any repubs on here that view palin actions last week as a good move ..
are sexiest..yes i said it...repubs are being sexiest...

face it..if it was a man..you would call him a weak..
for example..the gov of cali..if he wakes up this morning and say ..enough is the enough..i can't take it any more...then holds a press conference at noon .and step down...
every one would say arnold is a quiter...so why isn'y palin consider a quiter too?

Good Luck in the Electoral Collage Sarah as 20% of the then 34% remaining Cons voted for POTUS Obama!

All told, 29 states and the District of Columbia had Democratic party affiliation advantages of 10 points or greater last year. This includes all of the states in the Northeast, and all but Indiana in the Great Lakes region. There are even several Southern states in this grouping, including Arkansas, North Carolina, and Kentucky.

An additional six states had Democratic advantages ranging between 5 and 9 points.

In contrast, only five states had solid or leaning Republican orientations in 2008, with Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, and Alaska in the former group, and Nebraska in the latter.

The most balanced political states in 2008 were Texas (+2 Democratic), South Dakota (+1), Mississippi (+1), North Dakota (+1), South Carolina (even), Arizona (even), Alabama (+1 Republican), and Kansas (+2 Republican).

The Incredible Shrinking GOP: Only 20 Percent Self-Identify As Republican

Okay, this is striking. Earlier this year a Washington Post poll made a big splash because it found that only 21 percent self-identify as Republicans. The abysmally low number got pundits and reporters talking about whether the GOP is shrinking to the point of irrelevance.

Now we have another Murdoch WSJ poll that finds that the number of self-identified Republicans has dropped even lower: 20 percent!

365/173 in the EC & 10M+ popular voted against Palin, already!

now come on she is a loser just up and quit the job must have got hard for her just think if no she was elected to vp she would quit that also if some one had nothing nice to say to her . My pet rock has more brains than her guess she took basket weaving in college.bye what is her name again

LOL, now all that you & Palin will need is debate prep, broad overwhelming public support in the 29+ SOLID Dem states instead of the remaining 5 solid Rep low Electoral College vote & population states plus about $2 Trillion to pay for any successful GOP/RNC or 3rd party challenge in 2012! http://www.fec.gov

Except that Dems out fund raise you cons by 2:1... & your word salads econ plan would also require her to dump bigoil that has always paid her & disgusts most Americans.

Question# 1 Sarah you said 'That the Iraq war is God's plan"? Please explain how TF you know that?

Question#2 Sarah, you are a Global warming denier, but obviously no rocket scientist, please dispute the following: "w's NASA: In our (Continued consecutive 129th annual) analysis, 2008 is the ninth warmest year in the period of instrumental measurements, which extends back to 1880 (left panel of Fig. 1)."

"The ten warmest years all occur within the 12-year period 1997-2008." http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/2008/

And were not even to the obvious ethic challenges & Cheney like abuse of power charges & state conviction recommendations by her own bi-partisan appointed panel & she has "QUIT" each of the 5 Government jobs she has ever held! LMAO Ka Ching!

Good move Palin. Now she can attack without looking back.

In addition, her earnings potential will soar. I don't know of ANY republican who would not want her as a fundraiser.

It would be absolutely hilarious if Palin were to sign a $500 million, three-year contract with CNN as a political commentator. After that gig is up, she will have made enough money for the presidential run in 2016.

Go get 'em, Sarah!

Ohioans pile on Obama
Impatience with recession is reducing support, poll shows

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

President Barack Obama's approval rating has nose-dived in Ohio, a sign that voters are beginning to blame him for their economic problems.

In a state considered by many political observers as a must-win in presidential elections, a new survey released yesterday by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute shows that 49 percent of voters approved of the way Obama is handling his job, a 13-point drop in just two months. The poll found that 44 percent of voters disapproved of his performance.

The rating is Obama's lowest in any national or statewide Quinnipiac poll since he was inaugurated in January. In May, 62 percent of Ohioans approved of his job performance, and 31 percent disapproved.

"These numbers indicate that, for the first time, voters have decided that President Barack Obama bears some responsibility for their problems," said Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the polling institute.

"Until now, voters have given President Obama high ratings on the economy, blaming former President George W. Bush for their problems. They might be taking out their frustration on President Obama, possibly deciding that the change he promised has not come as quickly as they expected."

In other findings, the Quinnipiac survey showed Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher and Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner still running neck-and-neck for the 2010 Democratic nomination to succeed Republican Sen. George V. Voinovich, who is retiring.

Fisher narrowly leads former U.S. Rep. Rob Portman of Cincinnati, the leading GOP candidate for the seat, in a hypothetical general-election matchup; Brunner's tiny lead over Portman is within the margin of error, according to the poll.

Ohioans, by 48 percent to 46 percent, disapprove of the way Obama is handling the economy, a decrease from his 57-36 favorable rating on the economy in a May 6 Quinnipiac poll of Ohio voters.

In a "prototypical swing state" that Obama won last year with 52 percent of the vote, independents now disapprove of the president's handling of the economy by the same degree, 48 to 46, Brown noted.

"These numbers indicate that he may be losing, at least for now, some of those who voted for him in November, and should be an indication to the White House that his honeymoon with voters may be ending."

The poll found that 66 percent of Ohio voters are at least "somewhat dissatisfied" with the way things are going in the state, while 33 percent are at least "somewhat satisfied."

On Friday, a statewide Quinnipiac poll showed that Ohio voters also are blaming Gov. Ted Strickland for the economy, and his overall approval rating was down 11 points from the institute's May poll. The sinking numbers for Obama and Strickland could mean trouble for Democrats in next year's midterm election.

"If the election is a referendum on how Ohio's doing, which is what Republicans will try to make it, then it's bad news for Democrats," Brown said.

In the hotly contested primary showdown for the Democratic Senate nomination, Fisher holds the lead over Brunner, 24 percent to 21 percent; 51 percent are undecided.

In a general-election trial heat, Fisher leads Portman 37 percent to 33 percent, and Brunner leads Portman 35 percent to 34 percent.

The poll shows Portman ahead of Cleveland auto dealer Tom Ganley for the GOP Senate nomination. Portman is favored by 33 percent of the vote, Ganley by 10 percent, and 55 percent are undecided.

A source close to the Portman campaign said the GOP candidate will report next week that he raised about $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2009. Fisher reportedly will say he raised nearly $900,000 in the quarter. A fundraising estimate was not available from Brunner.

The Quinnipiac University Polling Institute surveyed 1,259 Ohio voters from June 26 through July 1. The poll's margin of error is plus or minus 2.8 percentage points.

Well, 2012 is a long way off, and anything can happen. My guess is if Palin should run that year, she will take the social conservative vote, just as Mike Huckabee did last year, splitting the GOP in two. Econonmic conservatives went for Romney, and the moderates in the party had nowhere to go except McCain. There are only so many votes to go around in the Republican party, and last year was the perfect example of a fractured party. 2012 will likely give us this same group, with only maybe a few new faces.

Two-Thirds of Republicans Still Support Sarah Palin but then again two thirds of Republicans say the economy is "sound"

I completely support Sarah Palin! Go Palin go! I know she supports the people and the constitution. She will stand up for what is right in America.

And two thirds of liberals are still scared senseless by Palin and can't stop attacking her.
