Seventy Percent of Voters Say Palin Is Not Qualified

11/16/2009, by Proloy Bhatta

HIGHLIGHTS

CNN Registered Voters: 67% say Clinton is qualified to be president.
70% say Palin is not qualified.
In July, 65% stated Palin would not be an effective president.

Despite the fact that general election polls showed Hillary Clinton could easily have beaten McCain by over 100 electoral votes, we were told she was too much of a polarizing figure to be elected.

Polarizing or not, CNN found that 67% of registered voters feel she is qualified to be president. It is Sarah Palin, on the other hand, that appears to lack electability. 70% of these same voters stated she was not qualified to be president.

Politician	Qualified?	Not Qualified
Hillary Clinton	67	32
Joe Biden	50	48
Mitt Romney	47	42
Mike Huckabee	43	47
Sarah Palin	28	70
Poll was conducted Nov 13-15, 2009

Our current VP, Joe Biden, was polled along with other 2012 hopefuls: Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee.

There really wasn't much new news here with this poll. In July, CBS found that 65% of adults felt Palin would not be an effective president, including a majority of Republicans.
