She Moves In Moose-terious Ways

Moves downward in the polls, that is.  CBS's latest numbers on Sarah Palin find that she has about the same popularity as Bush did at the end of his second term:  22% favorability.

 

Palin is viewed favorably by just 22 percent of Americans, according to the poll - including less than half (44 percent) of Republicans. Twenty-one percent of independents and 6 percent of Democrats view her favorably.

Forty-eight percent of Americans have an unfavorable view of Palin. That includes 73 percent of Democrats, 44 percent of independents and 22 percent of Republicans.

Twenty-nine percent said they are undecided or not sure how they feel about Palin, including about one in three Republicans and independents.

Palin's numbers are far better among Americans who have a favorable view of the Tea Party movement. Sixty-one percent of that group views her favorably, while just 14 percent view her unfavorably. One in four aren't sure.


Best part? That same 22% number is the percentage of Americans who have a favorable view of the Tea Party overall.  She's about as popular outside the Tea Party as moose scat in the punchbowl.  So please, by all means, run in 2012, Sarah.
