For 2016, Hillary Had the Worst Night
Townhall ^ | November 8, 2014 | Lawrence Kudlow

Posted on 11/07/2014 9:38:57 PM PST by Abakumov

We all know the Republican midterm landslide was largely a repudiation of President Obama’s policies and his handling of the job of chief executive. And of course, we don’t know who will succeed him in 2016. But buried deep inside Tuesday’s exit polls is a series of numbers on presidential contenders that will blow your mind. It’s completely different from most anything you’ve seen in the newspapers, the Internet or on TV.

Get this. Here’s a stunning question and answer from Edison Research, which interviewed 18,000 voters around the country as they left the polls on Nov. 4:

Do you think Hillary Clinton would make a good president?

Yes: 42 percent. No: 52 percent.

Whether she’s the frontrunner or not, a majority of midterm-election voters don’t want her running the country.

Hillary continues to be the most overrated person on the planet. She’s not quick on her feet and certainly doesn’t have the political skills of Bill. She’s inept to the point where I think she can be taken down in the primaries by a total loon like Elizabeth Warren. I’m amazed at how many GOPe types are scared of this woman. If she had the stature of a Margaret Thatcher then I would understand the fear but Hillary is a complete creation of the media and she is where she is today because of Slick Willie.

I figure it will be Warren.

Maybe there will be a combination of their talents to form Clinton/Warren or Warren/Clinton 2016

Is it just me or does Hillary Clinton look increasingly unhinged? I suppose it could be that she’s being advised to appear more likable and that’s just so foreign to her that she ends up looking like a dotty den mother. The nasty Hillary is less disturbing in some ways.

She didn't exactly boost the chances of Martha Coakley for governor of Massachusetts:

Putting a woman’s face on Communism might work with the American electorate. However, with lipstick on Commie pigs, they will wake up the next morning with a pigs in their bed.

What could be more humiliating for the people of the United States that to be ruled by a halfwit Alinsky-worshiping b*tch?

Thanks for posting. Larry Kudlow is a Reaganite to the core.

Seriously think Hillary would take a back seat to anybody?

Personally I hope the Rats nominate her. By 2016 she will be older, more bloated, more shrill, as fresh as a month old turd, and shackled to that aging, demented lecher of a husband.

She is not all that bright in a debate where they are allowed to have a free exchange either.
Remember she had to take the bar more than once to pass.

Hilary’a unattractiveness to voters & bad polling numbers is why the Dems decided to go with Barack. Secretary of State was supposed to help her bonifides and popularity.

It backfired. The Pubbies will insist on running some tired ole retread that no one wants to vote for. We’ll see if the Dems are stupid enough to run Hillary.
