WASHINGTON (AP) - A new Associated Press-GfK poll shows Sarah Palin is the most polarizing of the potential 2012 Republican presidential candidates.

The survey also shows more positive impressions of Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney. As for the rest of the pack - Tim Pawlenty, Haley Barbour, John Thune, Mitch Daniels - have name recognition problems.

I’m starting to think Rick Perry might be a decent candidate

NO!!! He flys with the wind. A follower not a leader.

I saw Sarah last night at the Majestic in Dallas. She is outstanding. Spoke for around 30 minutes without many notes or a teleprompter. She was engaging in a conversation not lecturing. I really like her.

Listening to Mark Davis this morning, who was also there, and he says “Well Im not any more impressed with her now than I was, If she runs okay but not 100% behind her” Mark Davis is a sadly mistaken. I hope callers give him heck.

I’m thinking a little polarization might be just what’s needed.

Tim Pawlenty. Oh, yeah, that’ll do it.

46% positive, vs, 49% negative.

Compared to the low 30% range she was pulling last year, that’s actually quite an improvement.

Wow a liberal/progressive news organization likes the two most liberal Republicans. Who’d a thunk it?

Man they know how to push the theme, don’t they?

They got together and said they were going to push “polarizing” and “unelectable”...we’ve had dozens here on FR and they always start exactly the same...

“I like her, but...blah, blah, polarizing, can’t get elected, blah, blah...”

It’s become a joke as big as the word “unexpected” has become coupled with any economic news.

A joke.

The ruling class knows that Huckabee and Romney are both putty in their hands.

Sarah Palin will not be molded by them—she is guided from a
higher level. So they make war against her.

The AP and the ruling class would love to have Romney/Huckabee as the presidential nominee.

Life long Republican here- now over 70.

Cannot & WILL NOT vote for Romney or Huckster for President.

Could see Romney as Sec of Commerce—but never will vote for Huckster.

I don’t give a rat’s behind how the AP feels.

They have proven over the past 5 years just how biased they are & are willing to show us that they are biased.

It is disgusting how twisted the job of ‘journalist’ has become. I don’t trust a single one of them.

Mike Pence

Eric Cantor

Gov Christie of N Jersey

Tom McClintock of California.

I could support these men, along with Haley Barbour.

Jindal needs to stay where he is for a much longer time. Louisiana needs him more than we do at this time.

Ohio needs John Kasich.

Wisconsin needs the new Republicans for a time to get things straight.

Other states need the cleansing that the new Republican leadership can bring.

We need to get voters in each state to see locally what a Republican administration VS a Jerry Brown in Calif can do for them & then —THEN- translate that into making the whole country swing to Republican.

I have written off the far east coast & the far west coast.

At the rate they are electing people & running their local issues, when there is a seceding by the middle states-Flyover Country- which may be inevitable- those parts of the country can just fend for themselves. Cut them off.

They will collapse within 5 years. Cannot feed your people with fancy ideas & Liberal Professors, & that is all they have there.

It feels like the posse is riding into town to save us all from the bullies.
