Palin as president: 6 out of 10 say no
NEW YORK, -- Despite Sarah Palin's prominence, a majority of Americans and a significant number of Republicans doubt she would be an effective president, a poll indicates.
A 60 Minutes/Vanity Poll shows 59 percent of Americans overall doubt Palin would be an effective president with 40 percent of Republicans agreeing, CBS reported Monday.
A mere 26 percent of Americans say they would have confidence in a Palin presidency.
However, Palin's influence continues to be felt when she engages conservatives while stumping for Republican candidates. Joe Miller in Alaska may be edging out his opponent, incumbent Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski, because of Palin's support, CBS said.
