Seeing no further value in the vaudevillian career of Sarah Palin, The Fox News Channel has released a poll that is basically the proverbial fork stuck in the well-done former Governor of Alaska. The same Governor that Fox News pundits once proclaimed to be the new voice of the Republican Party.
When Sarah Palin resigned as governor of Alaska over the weekend, she left pundits and politicos to speculate about her next career move, with the latest rumor focusing on Palin hosting a radio show. Earlier this week, Fox News released a poll revealing a plurality of Americans think Palin shouldn’t do radio — or be involved in politics for that matter.
About a third of Americans think the best job for Palin is homemaker (32 percent), while nearly one in five see her as a television talk show host (17 percent). Vice president of the United States comes in third (14 percent), followed closely by college professor (10 percent), with president coming last (6 percent).
Republicans think the best job for Palin is vice president (27 percent), followed by homemaker (18 percent), talk show host (14 percent), president (12 percent) and professor (7 percent).
According to the Fox poll, 51 percent of Americans have a negative view of Palin, compared to 38 percent who say they have a favorable opinion of her. I thinks that it is safe to say that if Fox News is done with Palin, then Palin is truly done.
