Sarah Palin Hits Rock Bottom, Would Lose Alaska to Her Rival Hillary Clinton
Remember when Sarah Palin thought she was the new Hillary Clinton? Palin has at times operated under the inaccurate belief that she is a rival of Hillary Clintons; wisely, Clinton has simply ignored Palin.
A new poll by Public Policy Polling (PPP) shows that not only are Alaskans done with Palin, but Clinton could win the state by 16 points were she to run in 2016.
Ouch. PPP concluded:
Alaskans were very clear about their disapproval with their former Governor, Sarah Palin. 78% of Alaskans believe Sarah Palin should not run for President in 2016 and when asked whether they have a higher opinion of Congress or Sarah Palin, Alaskans choose Congress (50-34). This is especially telling since their approval of Congress is at a meek 8%.
If Sarah Palin were to run for President in 2016 against Hillary Clinton (oh, please proceed), Alaskans would vote for Clinton by 53%. Sarah Palin only got 37%, with 10% not sure.

(46,436 posts)We haven't heard much about her for quite a while. Frankly, nobody gives a damn.
That reminds me that I haven't been to the ImmoralMinority for a while. Gryphen is the expert on all things Palin.
Ed. Even Gryphen hasn't posted about Palin for a week except for this poll. His last post about her had to do with how Google searches for her have fallen off dramatically.

(9,999 posts)Fox News cut her loose, her books aren't selling and this Grifter will be out looking for her next fraudulent scheme to make a buck. Maybe she will join the Bigfoot hunters, only she will be packing heat. She can call it, Shooting Bigfoot.

(36,437 posts)The question transcends politics. Clinton is objectively more accomplished than Ms. Palin. It's not even a close question.

(36,974 posts)and the other one is Lisa Murkowski (R).
The folks in Alaska like Murkowski and she votes quite often with the senate dems,
so the democratic party should sink money into other states other than Alaska in my opinion.
As far as The U.S. House Alaska has only one at-large seat - currently held by Don Young (R)

(4,551 posts)It seems to me that since losing the Republican nomination to the Tea Party in 2010 and getting elected as a write-in candidate as an Independent, she has been more willing to break with the right-wing of her party.
Tx4obama
(36,974 posts)I've seen 'many' senate votes where Murkowski joined in with Susan Collins (R-ME) to vote with the democrats.
p.s. Even though she was a 'write-in' candidate in 2010 she remained a republican and never declared herself as a Independent.

Hillary is the real deal. I'm gratified to see America finally waking up to appreciate Hillary's brilliance.
