Hillary Clinton's Popularity Remains High, Outstripping GOP Rivals, Poll Finds

By DAVID LAUTER Hillary Rodham Clinton is not only the best-known, but also the most favorably viewed of the potential presidential candidates from either of the two major parties, according to a Gallup poll released Thursday.

The poll was conducted Monday through Wednesday of last week, mostly after the news broke about Clinton's use of a private email account while she was secretary of state, but before the news conference this week in which she addressed the issue.

Roughly nine in 10 Americans said they knew enough about Clinton to have an opinion, and the poll found that 50% viewed her favorably, while 39% had a negative impression. On both counts, that put her in better position than any of the potential Republican candidates at this early stage of the presidential race.

The leftist press outlets are picking sides.

All part of the great crack-up.

People believe in HRC, and there is nothing we can do.

We said that about Obama. And he won. Twice.

Apparently, there is no way to underestimate the stupidity of the American voter, living in a Kardashian/American Idol/TMZ bubble.

Those whom the gods wish to destroy they first drive them insane. This is what’s happening to the U.S. of A!

8 years of Clinton + 8 years of Obama and high school and college indoctrination aided by a left-wing media begins to take its toll.

Well she perhaps is the most cheated on woman in the nation and has gone after the women her husband stalked.
How are these qualifications for the Presidency?

This is why this country is now effectively dead. A critical mass of its inhabitants have absolutely no regard for integrity.

“and has gone after the women her husband stalked.”

Hillary’s own personal war on women.

Like a poster said in another thread. Hillary could cut off Monica L’s
head and Rats would still vote for her.

It says a lot about the America we live in today.

You think ANYTHING that she has done makes a difference??? She's a big celeb. She wins.

So says the lying lamestream media. The reality is that the entire KKKlintoon bunch is universally despised. No one I know has anything but contempt for Hitlery. The truth is Americans recall how badly the Republic fared -- a collapsing economy, terrorist attacks, Waco, Elian Gonzalez -- during the corrupt reign of the abortionist B.J. KKKlintoon. No one will want a repeat performance of some of the worst years our nation has faced.

Pretty much.

I would’ve unfriended my sister on Facebook last week. Her defense on Clinton’s email crimes? “The GOP has screamed ‘SCANDAL!’ so often on the Clintons that no one takes such claims seriously anymore. Hillary has built-in immunity now, ha!”

It’s nauseating. Obama won with quite a bit of electoral college breathing room in 2012, and he and his goons continue to import more voters. The GOP nominee has to be ready to eviscerate Hillary at every possible chance in order to break-through to convinceable voters.

Yep - Gruber had it nailed. The ‘Rats know it, and the Republicans can’t get a grasp.
