Source: Reuters via Raw Story

(Reuters) - Nearly 60 percent of Americans would never support a Republican presidential bid by former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin or real estate mogul and reality TV star Donald Trump, according to a new poll on Wednesday.

Trump, who has been testing the waters for a possible 2012 run for the Republican presidential nomination, has said he would announce something before June -- after his reality TV show, "Celebrity Apprentice," ends its season on May 22.

2. Interesting to note.

Tens of thousands of posts on DU, half of them hand-wringing, about these two nobodies. This thread gets it's first reply after twenty minutes.

I guess we've moved on, first, to Hail the Oligarchs, and now Manny bin Goldstein.
