WASHINGTON – Sarah Palin is the most polarizing of the potential 2012 Republican presidential candidates, while impressions of Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney lean more positive, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll. As for the rest — Pawlenty, Barbour, Thune, Daniels — most Americans say, "Who?"

She reminds me of the characters from “Being There” and “A Face In The Crowd” most of all.
That as so hilarious when the idiot said "I can see Russia from my front porch."
Oh, wait. That was Tina Fey.
Never mind.
According to this poll Palin and Huck are tied with the highest favorability rating, Mitt and the others trail. But could they report that? Of course not! They had to try to slice and dice and interpret it as a negative poll for Palin.
LOL
“Most polarizing”
Another one for the Wednesday part of “Stop Sarah Palin Week.”
The press picked the last one and we see how that has worked out!
They need to shut the hell up!

ROFL. I can’t keep up!
I just pinged you to “Wednesday’s child.”
If people listen to the media like sheep, we will be stuck with Obama for another 4 years. I’m not saying its Sarah Palin or bust but people gotta decide for themselves who they want to vote for, not rely on the media. Does anyone think for a second the lamestream liberal media gives a damn about helping the Republican party. All they want to do is choose the candidate that they think will lose to Obama. They will hype him up, say what a great leader he will be, then the second he gets the nomination, they will go for the jugular
Not bad. I liked that.
For me, she is one of many that we should be looking at for 2012. I see some things that I like, and things I dislike at this point.
It is too early to determine who my candidate will be. I’m tired of the bickering. I’m also tired of seeing her name 24/7/365.
Perhaps the thing I don’t like the most right now is the desperation to have her name front and center every single moment. Part of that is her, and other parts of it are her well-meaning supporters.
Palin this, Palin that, Palin the other... get a life folks. It’s like having an insurance salesman call you up, bang on the door, or text you every five minutes when you’re not even ready to make a decision.
Enough already.
“Most polarizing”
Whats interesting is that you never see these words when describing any dimoKKKRAT candidate.
Huckabee and Romney?
I’d rather just run McCain again. Let’s just drop all pretenses. If we’re going to run an unelectable RINO let’s run the most unelectable most RINO of them all.
My friends, my friends...
Palin this, Palin that, Palin the other... get a life folks.Nobody's twisting your arm. You can go do something else. You don't have to stay here and listen to the adults talk politics.
OM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM....
This reporter is some kind of Sorosbot. Not only is he a gas bag who can be counted on to spout the party line even in his sleep, but in person he definitely gives the impression of being on pot. See also Charles Babington: How to speak douche bag

The Left openly tells us who they fear, Palin, and who they favor, Mitt Huckabee.
When fewer than 10% of those polled know who you are, it is hard to be polarizing. As of right now, names like Pawlenty, Daniels, Thune, Gary Johnson mean nothing. Only Palin, Romney, Gingrich and Huckabee would get positive ID above the 10% threshold.
I don’t think the media is going to sway 2012 any more than they did 2010.
People aren’t going to vote Obama over Palin based on the media. At least that’s my take on it.
I do think it’s time to back off on the populist route, and turn more to bedrock issues and selling facets of Conservatism on point.
The beauty of having someone front and center, is that it provides such a good platform for explaining what Conservatism is in such a friendly non-confrontational manner, that the populace buys off on it lock stock and barrel.
If explained correctly, Conservatism is a very appealing product. Details...
Most polarizing? That would be Mitt Romney, not Sarah Palin.
