POLL: Do You Consider Sarah Palin to Be a Serious Presidential Contender?
foxnewsinsider.com ^

Posted on 06/07/2011 5:12:11 AM PDT by stompk

Yes - if she runs, she'd have the same chance as any of the other GOP front-runners to win the nomination.

No - regardless of whether she runs or not, there are stronger Republican candidates.

Still haven't made up my mind.

(sorry I think my response was not clear)

The poll question seems to presume the best Palin could score, is to be just equal to the other candidates.

Frankly that is absurd.

If she runs, yes.

However she isn’t my first choice.

Right!

She is fine and I don't get why Conservatives are demanding some kind of flawless, larger-than-life, saint from the skies to run against a bounder like “O”.

If half of America voted on auto-pilot last time to get “O” into the WH, why do Conservatives DEMAND strict adherence to ‘cast in stone’ principles or 100% compliance with some dated, irrelevant and tedious formula for candidate perfection?

Are Conservatives making a CONSCIOUS EFFORT to get their chances kicked to the curb

I am still supporting Sarah as she gets stonger with each passing day.And the hatred and venom is making fools out of the likes of Barbara Walters and Brian Williams.

“Ilike Sarah ,personally, but I’d rather have Jim DeMint!”

I was a DeMint supporter until he voted in favor of Harry Reid’s extension of the Patriot Act. We need to get solidly behind any candidate that is a 100% Constitution supporting Conservative. Anyone who votes to give away our 4th amendment rights is not conservative enough for me(which includes almost all of the “Tea Party” endorsed representatives including my Congress Critter Tim Scott (SC-R) that voted for the Patriot Act).

Agree, DeMint is the best of the best.

Palin is going to have to win over a lot of people that thinks she is an idiot over time. She has the talent to do it, but it will take time. Not sure she can wait much longer than Labor Day to jump in. SHe needs to get her negatives down and the MSM is going to make that process as difficult as possible.

Many on the left probably consider her a serious candidate or they would not keep attacking her. Perhaps it is a preventive move. Bill O'Reilly pointed out that Brian Williams said at one point that he would not cover the Weiner scandal because it is not an important story. Yet he went after a minor comment by Palin regarding Revere.

There are also others who unfairly target her. Jay Leno goes way over the line. It not just I but a few other posters already last year noted his obsession with her. Whenever I have watched Leno he has mocked Pail. Last night he spent more time on her than Weiner. His obsession with her is creepy. He is like a rejected guy who turned stalker. he definitely has mental issues regarding Palin.

Palin is a serious candidate. Rinos are what the lamestream media will be pimping.

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

The ticket I’d like to see would be Christie/Ryan.
