You should look at the full data and the trends. While Governor Palin’s “very positive” numbers have consistently ranged from 40%- 49%, her “positive” numbers have decreased from 37% to 21% in the past year, with most of the drop coming in the last six months.
Her disapproval numbers are more telling. Her “somewhat negative” numbers have doubled, from 6% to 12%, and her “very negative” numbers have gone from 3% to 20%, almost all within the last six months.
She has a solid base of support (~45%), but she has totally alienated almost 1/3 of Alaskans.

And, more importantly, isn’t this the LOWEST her popularity has ever been? Her approval ratings in the last poll were 63%. Just a tiny decline, true. But the trend is down, not up, for her.
Sarah Palin’s ratings are higher than Barack Obama’s , Nancy Pelosi’s and Harry Reid’s ratings!
