LOL , If that woman is in it's a win win for the President. Republicans are going to pay a huge price for blocking any and every move the President make. Enough of these crooks we should take back our government from these wreckless asses.

Sarah Palin would lose to President Obama by 8 points if election was held today: poll

Bower/Schreiber/APSarah Palin trails President Obama by 8 points in the latest Quinnipiac poll.

Voters don't think President Obama deserves a second turn

but they don't want Sarah Palin either, according to a new Quinnipiac University survey.

Obama leads the former vice presidential candidate by 8 percentage points in the survey, but is in a statistical dead heat with Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee.

That news may come as a shock to Palin who told Barbara Walters in an interview set to air Dec. 9 on ABC that she believed she could beat Obama in 2012.

I believe I could, she told Walters.

That comment was met with near-panic by both sides Republicans who believe if she got the party's nomination she would be trampled and Democrats who fear she could win.

In an interview with Larry King that aired Thursday night, Vice President Biden dismissed the TLC reality show star s chances of booting his boss out of the White House.

Were I a Republican senator or a Republican political leader, I would look and say, 'Wait, she's got a good chance of getting the nomination.' But look, it's hard enough for us to figure out our side of the aisle, let alone go over and sort of handicap whether she can win or lose.

When asked if she was his preferred opponent, Biden replied, You know, my mom used to have an expression, 'Be careful what you wish for, Joe, you may get it.' So I never underestimate anyone. But I believe President Obama would be in very good shape.

When asked a similar question on MSNBC s Morning Joe on Friday, Biden laughed before carefully answering. I don't think she could beat President Obama, but she's always underestimated, he said. I think I shouldn't say anymore.

While the election is less than two years away, speculation that Palin is gearing up for the run has been growing more rampant by the day.

On Sunday, the Guardian, a British newspaper, reported that her aides had been looking at office space as headquarters for the Iowa caucus campaign.

But the Des Moines Register repudiated that report, saying that the aide mentioned was merely a conservative Jew who was scouting out Kosher eating places for him to eat when Palin stopped there on her book tour.
