Trump would have lost to Kucinich; Palin would lose

Kucinich probably has significantly lower name recognition than either of those two, right? Normally this would bring down a candidate's numbers, but it's possible that Kucinich is considered "Generic D" by a lot of people who wouldn't actually vote for him if they knew more. Similarly to how Ron Paul polls quite well against Obama when in reality he'd almost certainly lose in a landslide.
