Well, if you like polls...

http://politicalwire.com/archives/20...socialist.html

"A new Daily Kos/Research 2000 poll of Republicans finds that 63% believe that President Obama is a socialist, compared to 21% who say he is not and 16% that are not sure.

The survey also found that 53% believe that Sarah Palin is more qualified to be president than Obama, with 14% who believe Obama is more qualified and 33% who said they were not sure."

The Daily Kos is not exactly known for being a right-leaning organization either...

But the poll was only asking REPUBLICANS what they thought. And if only 53% of your party thinks that one of your leading candidates is more qualified to be president than a guy that is a republican's nightmare, YOU GOT PROBLEMS.

Yeah, but the magnitude is different. The Republicans have a few paper cuts but the Democrats are hemorrhaging.

Thankfully, Palin has no chance in hell on being on any presidential ticket for the rest of her life after she bailed on her job in Alaska. Thank you sweet Jesus.

I find republicans to be morons for attaching themselves to this hypocritical woman.

I'm just finishing up "Game Change", the story of the 2009 elections. McCain was an irresponsible idiot who didn't really want to be Pres. He wanted Lieberman as VP. They gave him Palin as a political move. They didn't vet. They immediately learned they had a disaster on their hands with her. They would try to put out fires, and she would just outright lie. Pretty riveting reading.

I watched Palin with O'Reilly, and with Beck when Faux News hired her - I think both those professional actors know, from those interview responses, now that she's dumb and useless. Good for winking and spouting platitudes, but not a working brain cell to be found.

For example, Palin is currently calling for Rahmbo E to step down, as he called a Dem plan "effing retarded". Palin, who has a Down baby, is incensed over the use of the word retarded and has compared it to racial slurs and the N-word, and called for his firing.

Unfortunately, before saying this, Palin has apparently forgotten that on the campaign trail last year, her staff witnessed and have publically talked about her stepping off stage, etc., then asking, "Where's my retarded baby?" about Trig (who she carried around on her hip like a prop, much to the chagrin of Down organizations who wondered why the child wasn't getting the special schooling such children need to maximize their potential)

Kos is definitely far left, but Research 2000 is a professional, non-partisan research org with good cred. Kos hired them to do the poll. Results valid.
