Alaskans, can you give us an idea of Palin's popularity now in your state?
Is there any chance she will lose office next time around in your state? What has been the effect of the unveiling of Sarah during this campaign?

3. I believe this is the latest poll that was done.

If attendance at rallies is any indication, Obama is ahead by about 4 to 1.

If the Supreme Court rules that the Troopergate report can be released tomorrow as planned, and if it is negative towards Sarah, expect to see another big drop.

Letters to the editor and comments to Daily News stories about Sarah on line are overwhelmingly anti-Palin. Of course, a lot of those comments may be coming from people in the Lower 48, but from what I've seen at the rallies, local feelings are running strongly against her.

4. I think the only thing that she has going for her is her sex appeal,
its not my view, but the guys that I work with seem to think she is good looking. That is about the only positive thing they can come up with.

5. Hardcore Rethugs still support her.. but since she ran as the "bipartisian choice"..
.
.

...she's lost a huge amount of support from Independents and Democrats.

Repugs are complaining CONSTANTLY to the Anchorage Daily News that all they seem to print in the Letter to the Editor section is anti-Palin submissions.

The editor slammed back saying that they should quit whining and actually take the time to write letters themselves. He said that the paper prints what it receives and they receive pro-Obama/Biden, anti-Palin letters something like 3-1.

BTW... today should be interesting as the Alaska Supreme Court is supposed to make a decision whether to delay the report from Independent Investigator Steve Branchflower on "Troopergate" which Branchflower is set to release tomorrow.
