A new poll of New Hampshire's GOP voters on the '12 presidential race:

Mitch Daniels 1 percent

Someone else/undecided 16 percent

New Hampshire is the kickoff primary, so you have to finish at least respectably in that state. They may be Republican and somewhat conservative there, but to say Palin doesn't play well there is an understatement. She's done, I won't even think about it. I can't imagine the Union Leader endorsing her, but I could be wrong.

I am no supporter of Palin, but I don't see much difference in quitting an elected office to run for President or staying in an elected office and ignoring it; to run for President.

As for those down on Palin, most were down on Hillary just as much and she seems to be doing really well in the Obama adminstration.

I see little comparison between Palin and Hillary Clinton in the potential ability to run our country successfully.

Haha- that's a good one

I am no Hilary fan, but she has so much more experience and skills than Palin it's like comparing a PhD and a kindergarten student.

Palin didn't quit to run, she quit after she ran because the media attention showed all the sketchy skeletons in her closet and fame and fortune were more attractive than finishing the job she swore an oath to do.

As far as the political polls, they haven't been right in my lifetime - they poll away and then we get candidates and eventually Presidents they didn't even know about.

Based on polls like this we were supposed to be voting for Guiliani or Hilary in the last election. :roll:

Palin left office with legitimate reasons. Here's what a Palin endorsement does for you in New Hampshire.


In a year when one establishment Republican Senate candidate after another has fallen victim to an insurgent Tea Party challenger, New Hampshire front runner Kelly Ayotte has found the solution: become the Tea Party candidate herself. Ayotte holds an overwhelming 47-14 lead over her closest challenger, Bill Binnie, thanks in part to a 55-12 lead with the primary voters who consider themselves to be a member of the Tea Party.
Ayotte's lead over the GOP field is pretty thorough. She's been able to unite the various factions of the party around her. She's up 48-12 with people who think the party's too liberal, 38-14 with people who think it's too conservative, and 53-15 with ones who think it's the fine way it is. She's the overwhelming favorite of Tea Partiers but she's also up 46-17 with folks who don't consider themselves Tea Party members and 41-10 with those who aren't sure. And she pairs a 43-16 advantage with conservatives with a 48-14 ones with moderates. [...]
Ayotte is up 53-11 with those who say they're positively influenced by a Palin endorsement. But she's also up 41-16 with those who say it's a negative and 47-16 with those who say they could care.

Hillary is no prize!

Which is why my post said "I am no Hilary fan." I don't trust her.

 

[Geo]

I think much more of her now than I did when she was just a first lady. I thought she was a decent senator, was pretty solid in the primaries against Barry and has done quite a good job as Sec of State.

I'd like to see Biden stand down for an Obama Clinton run.

There is no love lost between Hillary and Obama and
Hillary has a lot of baggage. I don't imagine Obama has forgotten that Bill called him a Chicago thug either.
