GOP VP candidate Sarah Palin Still Toxic

I am so glad the Democrat won and we don't have to listen to this beauty queen in the Whitehouse.

Okay, here's still more evidence, as if you needed it, that Sarah Palin is increasingly toxic to voters who reside outside the Palin Nation bubble.

Pew Research just released a new poll finding that more than twice as many Americans see a Palin endorsement as a negative for a Congressional candidate than view it as a positive.

The numbers: Thirty eight percent say they are less likely to back a Congressional candidate if Palin "campaigns on their behalf." Less than half that amount, 18 percent, say they are more likely to do so. Forty two percent say it would make no difference, only slightly more than see it as a downer.

No one is contesting the fact that Palin is a major draw among GOP primary voters. But the larger story here -- one that goes directly to the heart of her presidential aspirations -- is that she's successfully tightening her emotional grip on her devoted legions of supporters at the expense of just about everyone else. Far more see her as a turn-off than as a turn-on.

Palin supporters get very, very angry when you point this out. But the evidence is overwhelming at this point:

That's right silly lib. Keep focusing on her. Just try not to get stung with a surprise uppercut.

I highly doubt the American people will go for round 2 of your Liberal totalitarian-bullshit.

So, for 60% of those polled, it makes no difference or will make them more likely to vote for the candidate. What a NON story. The article itself is proof that folks still take her seriously enough to continue to try and discredit her.

Anybody who listens to Sarah Palin needs their head examined.

When Katie Couric can destroy a candidate in an interview the candidate shouldn't even by running for US VP.

Valid point. The newspaper question was a fucking lob and Palin imploded over it. That wasn't the McCain campaign's fault. That was all Palin's fuck up .

Yes, and it is old news. Again, you zealots seem to want to make Palin out to more than she is. It is like saying Howard Dean could run for President. He may be intellectually smarter than Palin, but he is still a nut.

That's an apt comparison. And look how the 2004 Presidential race turned out for the Dems. Expect Palin to cost the GOP the 2012 POTUS race if she decides to run.
