This is good news for Governor Palin. It shows that the GOP clearly is in support of her. I remember during the campaign in Iowa, even though she wasn't running, she showed up and made a speech on crony capitalism and corruption. She ended up drawing the largest audience than all the other GOP candidates, something Mitt Romney did not welcome. He had half the turnout she did. There is a reason to like Governor Palin. She has been honest, straight forward and doesn't mind taking on members of her own party calling them out on their cronyism while they participated catering to special interests. That is just one of the reasons what made her so favorable in Alaska as Governor.

Poll: Sarah Palin Has Highest Favorability Rating Among GOP Primary Voters


According to Public Policy Polling:
The best liked person we tested on this poll with Republican primary voters is actually Sarah Palin who has a 70/20 favorability rating. She's followed by Huckabee at 64/18, Ryan at 58/18, Paul at 58/21, Bush at 56/18, Cruz at 45/20, and Christie at 40/38. Most of those numbers are similar to what they were a month ago but Christie's seen a substantial drop from +18 at 47/29 a month ago to his new +2 net favorability.


Palin's favorability numbers show why former South Carolina Senator and Heritage Foundation President Jim DeMint said that Palin's endorsement was the most influential in a Republican primary. The poll was conducted January 23 to 26 and has a margin of error of +/- 4.6 percentage points.

she may be liked, which is a good thing, but not nearly seasoned enough to be a President.

Ted Cruz is my candidate, but they are going to need someone strong to run against Hillary, so, that is why they are behind Sarah....

More than Obama was, but your point is well taken. The GOP has a wealth of other well qualified potential candidates.

Haha, you mean the governor that couldn't even make it through one term as governor before getting bored and moving to Arizona? Alaskans aren't that bright it seems.

Obama still isn't seasoned enough to be President, never having governed.

Is the poll about likability, or electability?

Astonishing and shocking that anybody still mentions this airhead youbetcha dingbat. She's a joke. If it is indeed true that GOP voters view her favorably, then the GOP is far, far worse off than anyone can imagine. Absolutely hopeless in fact.

It's no wonder why the GOP is vastly disfavored in this country, and sinking incredibly fast. It is NOT a good sign when the GOP goes from the village idiot to the pathetic Palin from podunk. Astounding level of regression here.

It was the same way with Ron Paul. Look what the media did to him since he wasn't Progressive enough to continue the New World Order and Global Dominance by force.

Breitbart is pushing an agenda.
The polling I participated this morning, Had Ted Cruz in the lead by a far margin over Ben Carson and then Rand Paul.

Oh yes Palin is seasoned to be president. As a matter of fact, during the 08 election, she had more experience as a chief executive than the putative president that occupies the White House now. I'll let Newt Gingrich finish up in the video.
