Completely Moosed Up This Time

I'm still absolutely convinced Sarah Palin will run for President out of sheer ego, but if she actually does she's going to have a miserable time of it.

Sarah Palin’s unfavorable rating is off the charts.

The former Alaska governor’s numbers are astonishingly upside-down, according to a new Bloomberg poll showing a 32 percentage point spread between those who have an unfavorable rating of Palin and those who view her favorably.

Of the 60 percent in the poll who have an unfavorable opinion of Palin, more than half of them – 38 percent among the whole survey – said they have a “very” unfavorable view of Palin.

Her “very” unfavorable rating is higher than the total favorability ratings of Newt Gingrich, Donald Trump and Chris Christie.

The new poll is a dip from a December Bloomberg poll showing Palin with a net favorable rating of 33 percent and a net unfavorable rating of 57 percent.

Now granted, I think the second she announces her 2012 run her numbers will improve noticeably.  They will not improve to the point where she would actually have a shot of winning, however.  I'm also solidly convinced that her favorable ratings will never go below 27% either, so this is about as bad as it's going to get for her.

Either way, I think America is largely over Sarah Palin at this point.  No doubt she'll find some way to get back to being the center of the universe again quickly.
