Of the two potential GOP candidates for U.S. President in 2012, Arkansans like Mike more than Sarah.
The latest release from the Talk Business Quarterly poll shows that 61% of survey respondents give former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee an overall favorable rating, while only 49% do so for former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
“It would appear that the former Governor still has solid political standing in his home state,” noted Roby Brock, owner of TalkBusiness.net, and a content partner with The City Wire. “At least 10 GOP Senate candidates should be thankful that Huckabee doesn’t want to serve in the U.S. Senate.”
