A Week Later, Palin's Disapproval Higher Than Approval

[Fighting Donkey]

From politicalwire.com =

Gov. Sarah Palin's favorable/unfavorable ratings have suffered a stunning 21 point collapse in just one week, according to Research 2000 polling. Last week, 52% approved and 35% disapproved of the GOP vice presidential nominee (+17 net). This week, 42% approved and 46% disapprove (-4 net).

Earlier this week, Newsweek also saw the drop in other polling. "Over the course of a single weekend... Palin went from being the most popular White House hopeful to the least."

1. If I find a quiet place I bet I can hear her fall.

Hope she makes a big thud when she hits bottom.

4. and cracks her pelvic bone ..(nt)

[DBoon]

34. It is cruel and vicious to wish painful injury on someone

*I* hope when she falls a great distance, that her fall is cushioned by something very soft, thereby allowing her to emerge unharmed

Something like a big pile of this, for example:

2. HOLY SHIT!!! Does this mean that there are some people out there actually paying attention???!!!!

:wow:

[graywarrior]

3. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I when she hits the ground she splats!

[BrklynLiberal]

7. I was jsut going to post a link to this on that post you just made about her total

lack of purpose for existence.

This should make you feel better..:thumbsup: :hi:

[graywarrior]

6. A 21 point collapse

in a week is almost unheard of.

Forces people to ask, "Hey McCain, learned anything about the economy yet?"

8. Let us all worship at the feet of Tina Fey! I believe some of this is her doing.

:)

[BrklynLiberal]

11. AWWWWWWWWWW. Gee. We won't have the barracuda to kick around anymore.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[jenmito]

25. That's ok. Tina Fey has to work for her show "30 Rock" anyway, so it all works out.

:D

[mitchum]

17. I agree...

and I'm someone who never thought much of Fey's comic chops

[jenmito]

21. Yup. I believe she helped Hillary in TX and OH a little, too!

:)

[central scrutinizer]

26. If there is an encore this Saturday on SNL...

she will disappear faster than New Coke and the Edsel.

[Me.]

27. Not This Week

But the next several, according to a report I heard.

[BrklynLiberal]

37. That is what I heard too...

[Me.]

43. If We Say It, We Must Be

RIGHT :thumbsup:

[Celebrandil]

9. Poor Palin...

People must have missed her cosy little Fox interview. With Hannity serving, Palin hit some really nice balls.

[Arugula Latte]

12. Arctic ice shelves ... The economy ... Michael Jackson's nose ... Sarah Palin's favorability ratings

What are things that are collapsing?!

[krkaufman]

39. Chuckle. Great image. n/t

[LiberadorHugo]

14. No...lol

It means that Catholics and Mainliners are sick of being told that they're going to Hell and that Jews are heathens...:-)

[writes3000]

15. I think that Charlie Gibson interview did her in. More interviews, please. nt

[Fighting Donkey]

16. The American people recognize

that choosing the 1.5yr female governor of Alaska was purely political, and not "Putting Country First."

[Geek_Girl]

18. By the end of the debates I predict she'll be toast

nt

[Fighting Donkey]

22. My god, the debates my knock her to single digits...

in the approval department. Glad I sold her autograph right away (got $400 for it!).

[habitual]

33. great timing! congrats. n/t

[jenmito]

19. K& (5th) R! I'm GLAD to hear it but not surprised.

:hi:

[Number23]

38. Right. No surprise here either

The Republicans were betting that the 15% of Americans who are scared to death of capable, competent people of above-average intellect would rally to Miss Sarah. And they did - for all of 10 days.

They took a helluva gamble with Miss Sarah. And as that idiot Dr. Phil would say "and how's that working out for ya??"

[TwilightGardener]

20. In what respect, Charlie?

[TNMOM]

23. in what respect, charlie?

LOL:rofl:

[beac]

24. For some reason, this is the first thing that popped into my mind:

;)

[Cha]

28. Time for the corporate media to build her up

again..isn't that the way they work?

[Fighting Donkey]

30. Look for a 27 part series on HANNITY&colmes....

on how Palin reformed Alaska (but didn't really).

[Cha]

36. Exactly! Those freaks have

their work cut out for them with the gang who couldn't shoot straight.

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

29. And THIS decline came with her sequestered...

Wait till she starts actually campaigning...

[eshfemme]

31. Yes, this is a very good example of why common sense strategy > Republican tactics

Seriously, also a good example of a balloon the media inflates only to burst. Plus, this whole disapproval thing is just the rest of the people catching up to US who already knew she was unqualified. At least they're getting quicker on the uptake as the media seems to have gotten a conscience over how much they fucked up in 2000 and 2004 (but I still will never forgive them)-- I'm still pissed about the people who had to wait EIGHT FUCKING YEARS before they realized that Bush was a fucking idiot and there's still around 30% of Americans that are still behind the curve here. And it's most likely that this financial crisis still won't make them realize just what dumb fucks they've been.

[IsItJustMe]

40. I agree. It always amazes me how many people will let their ego and false pride get in the way of

being honest about something and saying, "You know what, I fucked up, I was wrong, this bastard is truly dysfunctional and a dumb ass."

That is your 30%.

[mscuedawg]

32. Good....
