Palin headlines: Favorability rating near lowest in Alaska, poll says: Alaska Newsreader | adn.com

Quote:
In Alaska just 33% of voters have a favorable opinion of [Sarah Palin] to 58% with a negative one. ... What makes her home state numbers unusually bad is that Republicans see her favorably by only a 60/30 margin. In most places she's closer to 80% favorability within her own party. Also while independents don't like her anywhere, their level of animosity in Alaska is unusually large -- 65% unfavorable to only 25% with a favorable opinion.

Ultimately, PPP points out, Alaskans' opinion of Palin is no more than an embarrassment for her and wouldn't matter in a nationwide election -- because she is rated negatively by the majority in every state.

The problem to most Alaskans is probably too much exposure to this woman, to include her speaking about her great state in her own T.V. show and the whole quitting bit. I havent watched her show but then again, I havent listened to a word from her since Nov.2008

Wow. Might explain the rumors flying around that suggest that the clan will be following Bristol to Arizona.

Not really. The Public Policy Polling is a Democrat Party affiliated polling firm based in Raleigh, North Carolina, founded by Democrat pollster Dean Debnam. Not exactly a credible source, and not exactly from Alaska.

As always, consider the source.

Anyone ever wonder why we don't hear much/anything about her eldest son?

He isn't a camera chaser; he seems to prefer to live his life without a lot of gratutious publicity.

The rest of that family could learn a thing or two from him.

Default Palin is not favored in Wisconsin either...

The only "reality show" is Palin losing the election... it is a sad day indeed if the "cattle herd" follows this sad excuse of a Republican. I'm liking Alaska better and better
