Here's a second tease of our upcoming NBC/WSJ poll...

Sarah Palin stepped down as Alaska governor on Sunday, and could be eyeing a presidential bid in 2012. But according to the poll, a whopping 67 percent of Americans -- and 43 percent of Republicans -- say they would not like to see her president someday.

By comparison, 50 percent of the public -- and 33 percent of Republicans -- say they don’t want to see Mitt Romney, another possible 2012 contender, become president.

Palin's fav/unfav in the poll is 32%-43%, which is virtually unchanged since April.

One other finding we're releasing: Just 41% approve of President Obama's handling of health care, which is nearly identical to Bill Clinton's scores from 1994, when he failed to get Congress to pass health-care reform.

1. They didn't call our house but we don't think she should be either.

2. And MSNBC buries this poll result on the second page - they lead the article with Obama

losing ground on health care reform.

3. I am surprised it isn't significantly lower

The lady is a total wack job. I actually shocked that that many people would "like to see her as president".

4. Sorry, but 67% is not "whopping". It means 1 out of 3 people are insane.
