Poll: Americans think Palin should be a homemaker (Salon)
... a newly released Fox News poll does have one interesting result: When asked what they thought the best job for Palin was now that she's left office, a plurality of respondents said "homemaker."

The poll gave seven possible responses to the question -- "president of the United States," "vice-president of the United States," "television talk show host," "college professor," homemaker," "other" and "don't know." Overall, 32 percent chose homemaker; with 17 percent, talk show host was the second most popular result.

Democrats, especially, were likely to choose homemaker as Palin's ideal job -- 45 percent of self-identified Democrats gave that answer ,while 21 percent said talk show host. But independents, too, leaned heavily towards the idea of Palin working in the home; 34 percent said they thought homemaker was the best job for her, while "other" was the second most popular answer among independents, with 21 percent.

And then there's an interesting result from the polling of self-identified Republicans, too: 27 percent, a plurality, said they think she should be vice president. But then, for the second most popular result, there was homemaker again, with 18 percent ...
