The problem for Sarah is that she has a very high disapproval rating (56%), a very low approval rating (38%), and a fairly small group of undecided/no opinion. She also has almost 100% name recognition, so there are not a lot of new people who don't know about her already. I had hoped after 2008 that she would be able to overcome the negative image of the perpetuated by the MSM, but her negatives have actually gone UP in the last three years. In other words, she has not shown an ability over the past three years to change the opinions of the independents and moderate Republicans - without whom she cannot win the election.
All those figures are meaningless if she wins the nomination, because the focus will be on two people’s records and clear vision for the future in a ten week sprint, and not lies and distortions from four years ago.
