Poll Gives Sarah Palin No Shot in Alaska Senate Race; Again She Blames Media
By Bonnie Erbe, Thomas Jefferson Street blog
A brand-spanking-new poll on pollster.com shows Sarah Palin has turned off even her own fellow hunters, frontiersmen, and hockey moms to a point no one could have believed back in September. That was when she was seen as God's gift to the religious right. Now, however, what God hath "given-eth" God is taking away. The pollster poll shows incumbent Alaska Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski whuppin' Governor Palin in a hypothetical matchup for Murkowski's Senate seat by 57 percent to 33 percent. Even with a 4.4 percent margin of error, that's plenty of room for Murkowski to win in a walk.
The Murkowskis must be yukking it up, because Sarah Palin ran against Lisa's father Frank, a powerhouse Alaskan, and took the state's chief executive job away from him.
Meanwhile, Palin seems to be doing all she can to run her numbers even lower. She talked to a conservative radio show host and told him she believes the media "exploited" her. Woe is me!

palin -Female W. Bush
please start using better sources for your history.
Look at the economy...The economy that was saved by George once after Clinton, once after 9-11 and once more if any dems in congress would listen when he warned 5 times about the "no problem" sub prime mess. And let's include one for the future when he would have solved the "no problem" SS mess that will be soooo much worse now that we are in debt up to our eyeballs!!
Look at the death of thousands (not 1000's) that ended a regime that used weapons of mass destruction to end the lives of tens of thousands of Iranian in the iran/iraq war. Then used them to end the lives of hundreds of thousands of Kurds.
Look at the human misery and suffering of the now free, self-governed Iraqi people no longer tortured en mass, killed en mass, no longer robbed of the blessings of their nations wealth by a murdering, torturing dictator that they loved enough to immediately put to death as soon as given the chance. Free to walk the streets, educate their children and engage in commerce as they deem fit. Perhaps there is some way we could find to make it all as it was. I'm sure you think they would appreciate that.
Bush 43 is the best president this country has had since....Ike? If a lifetime of studying history has brought you to these conclusions, like most journalists and teachers in America today, you have chosen the wrong line of work. I'm sorry you have wasted so much of your life getting so much so obviously wrong. Try different sources of information, and listening with a more critical ear.
P.S. better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt.
Palin - Female W. Bush
The American people voted for a man who had difficulty constructing a logical sentence. And yet Sarah with a very similiar set of Bush characteristics is loved by millions. Truly amazing!!! She may even be more shallow than Bush.
Anyone who maintains that the Bush Presidency was not reprehensible and dismal has been living in a cave. Look at the economy, look at the deaths of 1,000s: Look at the costs in human misery and suffering that the Iraqi war has brought to the Iraqi people. Look at torture: Look at the outrageous lies and corruption: As a lifetime student of U.S. History, Bush 43 is the worst most dismal U.S. President of all U.S. Presidents ever.
And there are those who support a similiar if not worse person as President. Astonishing indeed!
