Can Palin win?
That is one of the biggest questions in world politics. Palin has a formidable PR machine around her, but this hasn’t translated into the positive numbers that she might have expected.

One of the more interesting poll graphs out is comparing Palin to Hilary Clinton, and unfortunately for Palin her negatives are way worse than Clinton’s were.
Palin cannot be totally discounted as she will have a well funded campaign with a lot of activists if she runs for the Republican nomination, but these numbers make it very tough for her to credibly suggest she will beat Obama in 2012.
