So let me get this straight. Palin is just as admired as Clinton because 1% less people admire here? So I guess by Sanrene's theory, Nixon was co-president from 1960-1964 and Humphrey was co-president from 1968-1972. They lost the popular vote by 1%. Brilliant logic.

And I love how people have ignored the fact the article mentions Palin is one of the most-hated women in America today. She's right up there with Octo-Mom and Kate Gosling. That's some great company there

Oh and about Katie Couric trying to destroy Palin. LOL. Did you even watch the interview? Couric asked simple questions. Palin destroyed herself.

Oh I can help you out. You see polls are not precise measures. They have what are called "margins of error". basically a built in fudge factor. They do this because they take a small sample size and extrapolate it to the country at large (as much as those who are on the losing end would like to deny it polls are pretty accurate). Now with an election people go to the polls, votes are counted and a precise winner is determined. No margin of error because everyone (who wants to) is polled.

As for ignoring the most hated women, it is off topic since the thread is about most admired. I am sure many people would love to participate inthe thread you will start on that topic.

Hope this helps!

It is so pathetic that you keep trying to equate coming in second with coming in first. Tell you what, sweetie, as soon as Sarah Wailin' Bailin' Failin' Palin can come in first OR second 17 years in a row the way that Hillary Clinton has, then she'll be on an equal footing. Until then, she's a nobody who was plucked out of the Frozen Frontier as a cheap imitation of Hillary Clinton. She lost. Twice now. Deal with it.

But then by theory Clinton's MOE could by a few points. She may actually be ahead by more than the article stated.

You are proving my previous post. The lefties are enraged that Palin is seen in the same light as Hillary. In this poll people see her the same as they see Hillary, there is no question about it. Deal with it. It is not the end of the world. It is nothing personal. Calm down and relax.

Not really. Overall, Hillary's favorable opinion dwarf Palin's. The thing is conservatives really don't have any other women to admire, it's natural Palin's that high.

Well I am not enraged about it.

I don't hate Palin. I don't love Palin.

I don't care about Palin.

But I do love Hillary!

Sure she could but the point is they are so close as to be indistinguishable. It is not that important but the fact that the left is so whipped up by it means it is important to them. That is what I find funny.

This poll is about most admired woman. They are neck and neck.
