Sarah Palin Falls in the Polls But Does It Matter?
Alaska Governor Sarah Palin visits with Brooke at the John C. Haines Elementary School on April 29, 2009
Well, it was bound to happen since polls had her in the upper atmosphere in popularity.
Time in the spotlight apparently hasn’t helped Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. According to a Hays Research poll, Palin’s positive rating has nosedived from 86% positive a year ago to just 54% now.
Palin still is a net-positive (54% positive, 42% negative), but compare that to fellow Republican Lisa Murkowski, who’s approval is above 76%.
Who or what is to blame for her fall from polling grace? But does it matter at this point?
Probably NOT and, in fact, lowering expectations for her may actually help her as she moves towards re-election next year.

You have raised a nice point. If we give it a serious thinking, it doesn’t really matter as the elections are over and Obama administration is working.

It’s too early to elections, so it’s not really important.
