In a new poll, Sarah Palin topped the list of people most Americans would like to have as their neighbor.

 

In possibly the least relevant poll of all time, Zillow.com - a real estate website (that explains it; these are the kinds of stunts you have to pull nowadays when you sell houses for a living) - interviewed 2,196 Americans and asked them which celebrities would make the best and worst neighbors.

Palin topped the list of desirable celebrity neighbors, netting 14 percent of the vote. If they couldn't live next to America's favorite moose hunter, they'd go for Oprah (not surprisingly, this answer was popular with the females) or Michael Phelps (men mostly went for the Olympian as a neighbor). The person Americans would least like to see pulling up in a Ryder truck? Britney Spears (19 percent) and Rosie O'Donnell (18 percent).

  • Pete Thursday, Jan 8 at 1:00 PM FLAG COMMENT It's quite ironic...the people that call Sarah a "racist bigot etc" are the ones posting the most hateful messages! It is amazing how the left says they're the ones that are for "tolerance" and "diversity", so long as you don't include conservatives or Christians - because they're the *real* haters, all while spewing hatred and vitriol at them...
  • greg Thursday, Jan 8 at 12:48 PM FLAG COMMENT It's interesting how Gov. Palin is also the 2nd most admired woman in the country, has the #1 best selling calendar on Amazon, was the #1 Political Newcomer of the Year, and was named Conservative of the Year. Doesn't look as if the 24/7 attacks on her by the 0bama trolls and the so-called "mainstream media," isn't working as well as they thought it would.
  • Curth Thursday, Jan 8 at 12:33 PM FLAG COMMENT Only a person who is stupid, a bigot and a racist would call Governor Palin those sorts of names. She didn't allow anything to fester at her rallies. I am sure you are referring to the story made up by , tada, the left wing biased media that claimed people shouted "Kill him" when Obamas name was mentioned. Sorry, but the Secret Service takes things like that seriously and investigated and found it totally untrue.She didn't cal ... MORE >
  • Scipio Tuesday, Jan 6 at 10:39 AM FLAG COMMENT Anyone who classifies Sarah Palin as a racist is either angry at the world or projecting their own thought pattern onto Palin. Anyone who uses a suedonyn "JUSTICE" sounds like they think that they have been denied justice. It might be beneficial to look inwardly before you spend the rest, remainder, and residue of your life as a bitter and continually unhappy person. I appologize for any misspellings in advance.
