CNN 2012 Poll: Sarah Palin slides with Conservatives

In the battle for the GOP presidential nomination, the survey suggests Palin may have some work to do if she throws her hat in the ring. Only 49 percent of Republicans say that they are likely to support Sen. John McCain's running mate in 2008 for the Republican nomination in 2012.
"That's a huge 18-point drop since December of 2008, when two-thirds of GOPers said they were likely to support Palin. It also puts her well behind potential rivals Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney, and a bit behind Newt Gingrich as well," adds Holland.

This coupled with PPP's analysis of her favorability numbers is not a trend that will win you the nomination OR the general.

I thought she had the conservative vote in the bag.

I guess not.

I guess she doesn't have the conservative vote rapped up.

Do you think being OVEREXPOSED 24/7 helps?
