Palin? Not so Much

Chris Cillizza:

Palin still faces major doubts among the broader electorate.

In the latest Washington Post/ABC News poll, 37 percent had a favorable impression of her while 55 percent regarded her unfavorably. Perhaps more troubling for Palin's future political prospects is that just one in four (26 percent) of those polled said she is qualified to be president while a whopping 71 percent said she wasn't up to the job. (Even among self identified Republicans, just 46 percent believe Palin is qualified to be president while 52 percent say she isn't.)

If a woman whom 71 percent of the country think is not qualified to be President can become President, we live in very strange times indeed.
