With Barack Obama pulling ahead in key battle ground states, the question becomes what has been sinking the McCain campaign. The answer, from recent polling, is clear — Sarah Palin has become incredibly unpopular:

In Florida — Palin gets a negative 36 – 39 percent favorability, down from 47 – 23 percent September 11. In Ohio — Palin’s favorability is split 35 – 35 percent, compared to 41 – 22 percent last time. In Pennsylvania — Palin’s favorability is a negative 34 – 37 percent, down from 39 – 26 percent.

Nationally, Palin also has the lowest favorable ratings on the Presidential tickets, with a 52% unfavorable rating [via Daily Kos daily poll tracker]
