Funny, they didn’t ask about Sarah. They think if they pretend she isn’t running, maybe she won’t. They even ask about Guliani and Perry, neither of which has announced.
Yes, they did ask about Palin. She got 3%.

Note this from the pollsters:
It is critical to point out that primary voters behave very differently than general election voters -- there are no party cues to rely on, and almost all primary voters will vote for their partys eventual presidential candidate, no matter who that might be. Most primary voters do not settle on a choice until the very end of the campaign, so early poll numbers are a better gauge of a candidates popularity now than an indication of who voters will end up supporting.
In the most recent poll, 75% of likely Republican primary voters say they are still trying to decide who they will eventually vote for in 2012, 17% are leaning toward a candidate, and only 8% say they have definitely decided who they will vote for.
