After a year in office her approval rating as governor was in the 90% range. It's dropped into the 60s with the advent of her nomination for vice president, but compared to the numbers for Bush (26%) and Congress (even lower) it's clear that people like her.
The vice presidency is really not a big deal, but things could get exciting if we see a Palin vs. Hillary contest 4 or 8 years down the road.
