Nate has a post up, arguing that people aren't going to trust Sarah Palin's take on Barack Obama because 63% already have a strongly entrenched positive or negative perception of him while she is relatively unknown, only 45%. He provides this data:
Percentage viewing as Very Favorable OR Very Unfavorable
Obama 63
B. Clinton 63
Gore 61
H. Clinton 60
Bush 60
Cheney 59
Pelosi 51
T. Kennedy 48
Palin 45
Kerry 45
McCain 43
Romney 38
Biden 33
I think he's burying lede. Look more closely:
Percentage viewing as Very Favorable OR Very Unfavorable
Obama 63
...
Palin 45
...
McCain 43
More people have a strong opinion about Palin than McCain! Talk about the man from nowhere.
