New poll in Alaska says if Palin ran for president against Obama |
|
She would lose her own state by a margin of 36% to 42%. It would be the first time Alaska voted for a Democrat since JFK. Probably will happen no matter who Republicans pick as their candidate...

1. I think those numbers would change once the campaign started |
|
Palin would lose big against Obama, but she would probably win Alaska along with other sparsely populated states in the great plains/big sky region. She'd probably win a few southern states too, though not as many as McCain did.

2. She is not liked very much in Alaska, remember she quit half way through her term as Governor. |
|
She is known as the quiter in Alaska and not to be trusted..

But I just don't see Alaska voting for Obama even if Palin is at the top of the ticket. It's all moot anyway, since she's probably not going to run.

3. Why The Media Keeps Up Her "POTUS Aspirations" |
|
is a mystery...she's steadily losing support, down to single digits.
Only a tiny percentage support her now, she's a loser and a liar.

4. How often does a state vote against its own former Governor? |
|
This is hilarious, and boy does she ever deserve it.

7. It would be the first time Alaska voted for a Democrat sinc LBJ, not JFK. |
|
Kennedy lost Alaska narrowly. Johnson carried it overwhelmingly: 66-34.
