Skewed Poll Takes Aim At Palin
America's Conservative News ^ | Saturday, August 3, 2013

Posted on 08/03/2013 12:45:56 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

The lame-stream media obviously views Sarah Palin as a threat and is reporting with glee that 77 percent of Alaskans believe that Sarah Palin should not run for President in 2016; but, in typical fashion, the media is ignoring key data in the poll by the far-left Public Policy Polling (PPP) company that indicates that bias was built into the poll and that conservatives and Republicans are responding well to the idea of a Palin run...



Leading the anti-Palin charge is the left-wing Politico which is reporting: "Despite it being her home state, only 18 percent of Alaskans think Palin should make a bid for the White House in 2016, with 77 percent... saying she should stay out of the election."

What the media is not saying, however, is that in a match-up of likely GOP candidates, PPP places Palin in second with 14% of the vote (Rand Paul leads the pack with 18% of the vote).

The PPP poll also claims that 507 of the 890 voters in the poll are "Republican primary voters," however, only 32 percent of the respondents to the poll identified themselves as Republicans" and only 45% of the respondents identified themselves as "conservative."

We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan

Sarah Palin with her positive attitude and can do spirit is the one person who could turn America around the quickest as President.

Palin enemies is not the left wing, it is corporate America. In the eyes of corporate America, Palin is like Teddy Roosevelt. When she was gov of Alaska she went after the bid fixing oil corporations and their GOP enablers in state gov. She would have none of that resulting in reform and a GOP Senator put on trial. The one percent do not like that especially from a woman of the blue collar class. Gov Palin will never have peace from these people because she dared to challenge them, reform and would even put them in prison. If Palin was VP in 2008, Wall Street bankers would be on trial and in jail. That is why Wall Street bankers using their leftwing tools go after her as well as their GOP establishment tools to undermine her. All puppets have puppet masters that lead to one percent and Wall Street. That is why the GOP can never win, we understand the enemy in front of us Dems and their colored thugs, but not the white collar traitors behind us undermining this country so they can fill their pockets with filthy lucre.

I’m excited for Palin to run for president.

I know the liberals and the media would have a meltdown if she did so. But I think she would be a great candidate, in spite of how the media would treat her.

Not as much as the Rino's will.

“Do you think that bitch-whore Sarah Palin, who quit being governor when she did not get everything her way, who had a mongrel, retarded, defective son when abortion was easily available, and who is not a respectable, right thinking, progressive, bull-dyke like the women in the Democratic party, should aspire to higher office in the Senate?”

Rush has always said that Democrats/Liberals/Ruling Class and MarxoFascists will always tell you who they fear most.

Just note whom they attack, ridicule and marginalize as ‘unwinnable’ and other such tawdry nonsense.

Palin can articulate a Conservative message - that is why those in power see the absolute need to destroy her.

So only 32 percent are Republicans but they’re Republican primary voters, and Sarah places second, so that means they don’t want her to run.

Got it.

I hope she doesn't waste her time running as a Republican. I like the idea of her at the top of a third party conservative ticket..
