Hillary's poll numbers continue to tank as she hasn't been this unpopular since 1992 when the Cold War officially ended and 'End of The Road' was the top song
Hillary Clinton's credibility troubles with voters have put her 'favorability' poll numbers in nearly unprecedented doldrums, with just 41 per cent of Americans saying they have a positive view of her.
The last time her numbers were that dismal was 1992, the year her husband won the presidency. The Gallup Poll attributed that poor showing on Friday to 'the public's lack of familiarity with her, rather than any kind of broad unpopularity.'
1992 was the year that brought Americans their first cinematic glimpse of 'Reservoir Dogs,' the gender-bending film 'The Crying Game,' the Spike Lee joint 'White Men Can't Jump' and the women's baseball feature 'A League of Their Own.'
The Boyz II Men single 'End of the Road' topped the charts that year.
Also in that same year, President George H.W. Bush and Russian President Boris Yeltsin officially proclaimed the end of the Cold War, the Rodney King riots broke out across parts of Los Angeles and the North American Free Trade Agreement was signed.

Did I just see where the GOPee’s ‘road map’ isn’t working anymore???? LMAO
or.... the DAILY MAIL wasn’t doing the same reporting of/about the US that they are now doing?
(I think I hated her before I even heard her name)
[full disclosure; she went to college in Wellesley, I lived in the adjoining town]
Where’s the indictment?
Very soon we'll have another Hillary supporter.
And also in 1992 [sound familiar - anything like this happening today?]:
1992 : (EGYPT : KILLING OF POLICE OFFICERS STILL RISING -—See MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD EFFORTS TO DESTABILIZE GOVERNMENT) The [{London} Sunday]Times notes that in 1991, 96 Islamic militants and police were killed; in 1992 the number was 322; and in 1993 it was 1,116.
The Egyptian government has responded with draconian measures, including mass arrests. US intelligence officials worry that these TECHNIQUES ARE NOT WORKING, and have been URGING EHYPT TO INTRODUCE POLITICAL ECONOMIC REFORM.
Sunday Times (London), 2/20/1994]
That’s good
The above is paraphrased from the times by another freeper whose name escapes me for the moment...it’s not a quote from the article.
“The Gallup Poll attributed that poor showing on Friday to ‘the public’s lack of familiarity with her, rather than any kind of broad unpopularity.’”
All these years and she ends up back where she started! The people didn’t like her when they didn’t know her, now that they do, they still don’t. All this time “chrome plating a turd,” and it didn’t matter.
Heh. Music to my ears. Let's hope its the 'end of the road' for the Hilderbeast. In honor of her tanking poll numbers, here's the classic hit:

I don't think her high unfavorables in 1992 were due to "lack of familiarity", though. I never heard of anyone saying they strongly dislike a person they're not familiar with. 41% of Americans aren't going to say they have an "unfavorable" view of Croatia President Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović, for example.
More likely, I'd say her bad numbers in '92 were because she came across as a arrogant b**** in her initial public apperances. The infamous sarcastic remark she made that year about being expected to "stay home and bake cookies" probably sealed her fate:
She is still going to get the Democrat nomination,then the media will go into full cover her ample ass mode
