Iowa Poll: Palin A "Credible Candidate" In Caucus State
Real Clear Politics - TIME.com — A new Iowa Poll finds that Sarah Palin has a 66 percent favorable rating among Iowa Republicans, "making her a credible candidate for the 2012 caucuses should she decide to run for president," the Des Moines Register finds. But Palin doesn't score as well as Mike Huckabee, who has a 70 percent favorable rating and is viewed unfavorably by just 12 percent of Iowa Republicans. Palin's unfav number is double that -- 24. Among Iowa voters overall you see why Palin is such a lightning rod, as she is the only potential Republican candidate with a net-negative favorable rating. And ...

Poll: Romney’s favorables now below 50% among Republicans?
Hot Air » Top Picks — ... man out among the big three only cements it. Although maybe it won’t matter: Mitt’s strategy, I assume, is to position himself as the alternative to whoever emerges from the Huckabee/Palin fracas, counting on the fact that New Hampshire will keep him alive in the early running and the “anyone but Huck/Palin” vote will put him over the top. Speaking of the fracas, here’s video from last night’s Geraldo of Huck defending the woman of the hour.

Palin polls exceptionally in Iowa: a Des Moines Register poll released in late November reported that 68 percent of Iowa Republicans view her favorably, besting Romney's 58 percent rating. Mike Huckabee took the highest rating with 70 percent.
