The rest of the numbers says she has lost support among Democrats and Independents.
A recent Poll put the number of persons declaring themselves to be Republicans at 21%.
A quick reckoning of the numbers is giving her the majority of 21 Percenters and reducing minority of the Majority of potential voters in the Country.
Nothing to be alarmed about, I for one hope she runs and keeps on running

Re: Palin still has strong support in the GOP

It does not surprise me. If Palin throws her hat in the race I think she will be the nominee in 2012 based on presidential primary schedule of the last election. The &quot;educated&quot; Republicans will not vote for her but they are in states that vote later in the primaries. After Florida it is normally over.

1 Iowa caucuses (Palin)
2 Wyoming county conventions (Palin)
3 New Hampshire primary (Other educated Republican)
4 Michigan primary (Palin)
5 Nevada caucuses (Palin)
6 South Carolina primary (Palin landslide)
7 Louisiana caucuses (Palin landslide)
8 Hawaii caucuses (Toss up)
9 Florida primary (Palin landslide)
10 Maine caucuses (Other educated Republican)
11 Alabama primary (Palin landslide)
12 Alaska caucuses (Palin landslide)
13 Arizona primary (Palin landslide)
14 Arkansas primary (Palin landslide)

Re: Palin still has strong support in the GOP

that woman scares me

I live in a very republican county and see how they have been complaining about obama since Nov 5 I just say now you know how WE felt for EIGHT years

but still the people I speak with appear to be educated and I still cant understand how they think especially since she is stepping down as governor how she can be a viable candidate.... but that is just me
