The latest ABC/Washington Post poll suggests that Sarah Palin is starting to fade big time in Americans' perception as a possible candidate for President.

Her ratings in 2008 when she was the Republican candidate for VP showed 34% strong approval. That 34% has now dwindled to 18% in the latest poll.

At the same time, the 23% of people who strongly disapproved of her in 2008 has now grown to 38%.

A whopping 71% of the people polled now say she is not qualified to be President. Hopefully, thr more people see her, the more they realize what a bad joke McCain played on America in making her famous.

She's imploding:

"Sarah Palin has barred media coverage of two speeches she will deliver in Florida next month. No video or sound recordings or still photography will be allowed at the events scheduled in Daytona Beach and at the Lincoln Day dinner of the Orange County Republican Committee, the Orlando Sentinel reported Friday.

The speeches' sponsors say agents for the former Alaska governor set the rules. Reporters can buy tickets -- going for $150 and $250 -- and take notes.Orange County GOP Chairman Lew Oliver said he's thrilled Palin will appear at his group's fundraiser but acknowledged to the Sentinel that the media blackout "is an unusual circumstance."
