For all those convinced that the serial allegations of ethical impropriety swirling around Hillary Rodham Clinton will puncture her prospects of winning the presidency next year, there's a relevant precedent to consider: on the day Bill Clinton was reelected by more than eight million votes in 1996, a solid 54 percent majority of voters said in exit polling that they did not consider him honest and trustworthy.

She doesn’t need Americans, she’s got stupid dems, illegals and the Saudi’s to back her, no problemo.

Someone needs to adapt that cop poster “I’m going to kick your @ss and get away with it” to a version with Hillary saying “I’m going to lie to your face and get away with it.”

As long as she has the keys to where they keep the free stuff, she can win the election. Especially now that the Kenyan bastard has imported so many freeloading illegals.

The problem isn’t that they don’t trust her. The problem is that they don’t like her.

The Democrat machine which consists of far left liberals, self hating Jews, unions, all people connected to the government through benefits or employment make up quite a voting and financial block.
Once they have a Democrat even if it were a Nazi they would back them to the end.

The lack of ethics are amazing regarding this because we are/were the United States of America.

She depends on the ignorance, corruption, stupidity, and dependence of her core voters.

Shrillary has none of Bubba’s political skills or charm. The longer she stays out in public the more people hate her and frankly she doesn’t care to be out among the masses either. I don’t see this ending well for her.

This guy is probably right, but not for the reason he states. Low information voters on the government dole will vote in federal elections for whomever is more likely to keep the cash flowing. Don’t know if the number is 46%, but I bet it’s forty something. Romney was a prophet in his own land.

Brownstein is a long time Clinton sycophant. To him, it’s perfectly logical that her trustlessness being comparable to the only elected President to be impeached is nothing to worry about.

Brownstain is so busy spinning that he FORGOT that Bill only won because of Ross Perot, who drew far more than 8 million proto-Tea Party votes, none of which Bill was ever going to get. If conservatives resist the strong temptation to support a third party candidate, Hillary will lose, just like Bill would have.

” Those charges created persistently high doubts about his honesty and morality. But none of them produced a fatal wound. “

Naw....global humiliation and disbarrment was not fatal, thanks to people like YOU in the MSM, Mr. BrownNOSE

"on the day Bill Clinton was reelected by more than eight million votes in 1996, a solid 54 percent majority of voters said in exit polling that they did not consider him honest and trustworthy."

However, Bill was a very charismatic, likeable guy and was wildly popular. Hillary.....not so much.

Two words (three, if you’re Joe Biden): voter fraud.

The problem isn’t that I don’t trust her, it’s that I do. I know exactly what she would do as president.

To be blunt, the basis for Hillary's appeal is Bill. Only the vagina-centered feminists are going to vote for Hillary because she's Hillary.

The rest of her voters will be casting a vote for her as a proxy for Bill -- with fond memories of his "roguish charm", a booming economy, an artificial "peace dividend" and doing mischief to Republican initiatives -- expecting a repeat performance.

Actually as I read the article, he describes the majority of American voters quite well.

Because she’s got 600 million latinos south of the border that’s she’s going to let in to replace the Americans?
