Rasmussen Poll Says Palin For President In 2012
A Rasmussen poll released on November 7 found that 91% of Republicans have a Favorable view of the Alaska governor, 65% of which say they have a Very Favorable view. Only 8% held an Unfavorable view of her. While news was breaking that McCain aides and staffers found many flaws in Sarah Palin and questioned whether or not she should have even been chosen for the vice president's position, 69% of the Republican respondents to the Rasmussen Poll said that she helped the McCain ticket. Only 20% said that the Governor had a negative impact.Such a high favorability among her party suggests that the Lower 48 have not heard the last of Sarah Palin. Consider also that Governor Palin is most Republicans' top choice for president in 2012 (64%), far outpacing the second (former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, 12%) and third (former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, 11%) choices. As for gender support, 66% of male Republicans would like to see Palin as the Republicans presidential candidate in 2012, while 61% of female Republicans would.

Would be interesting if it did come to pass. Within four years, she'll learn a lot and pick up a ton more political savvy, already knowing exactly what she'll be in for.
Would love to see her in the 2012 race, regardless of who else is in it.
