CBS Breathlessly Tells Us About Sarah Palin’s Low Favorability

Isn’t it simply amazing that a private citizen, albeit a high profile one who was the GOP VP candidate, is actually having favorability polls done on her by the MSM?

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin continues to receive unfavorable ratings from the American public overall, a new CBS News poll shows, though many Republicans do hold a favorable opinion of her.

But even as the former GOP vice presidential candidate continues to build up her persona as a media personality and conservative spokesperson, nearly four in 10 self-identified conservatives say they do not have an opinion of her or know too little about her to have an opinion.

Twenty-four percent of Americans have a favorable opinion of Sarah Palin, while 38 percent view her unfavorably, according to the poll, conducted March 29 through April 1. Thirty-seven percent of the public is undecided or hasn’t heard enough to offer an opinion. Her ratings have held fairly steady over the past year.

So, let’s see, that is a net minus-14 difference. Hmmmmm

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 28% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -14.

So, after years of the media proclaiming Obama the messiah, The One, the Smartest Man On The Planet, after all the Obama-luv, the worship, the idolatry, the obagasm’s by those supposedly objective and unbiased media folks, and all the vitriol, the negativity, the sexist comments, the personal denigration of Palin and her family, the biased stories, after all that, Obama has the same net negativity rating as Palin.

    WEll, President Obama will go down in history for passing health care, as many tried to do over the last 50 years. That was just year ONE!

    $arah “Let them eat FAKE” Palin lost her bid as VP and her ghostwriter, Miss Tonya Harding, wrote a knobcheesy book for her. oh wow………..

    Teach you are not making an honest comparison here, but instead using for Obama only those “strongly approving/disapproving. If you had bothered to look you can see that a similar Rasmussen approval/disapproval would have resulted in a figure of less than 50% of Palin’s
