Can Hillary overcome the 'liar' factor?

Hillary Clinton took a new tack this week when answering questions about her use of a private email account as secretary of state: She took responsibility and admitted she was at fault.

“It clearly wasn’t the best choice,” Clinton said flatly on Wednesday, as she campaigned in Iowa.

On Thursday, the reason for the change in tone came into sharper focus with a stunning new poll illustrating the extent to which voters don’t trust Clinton to tell the truth.

While Republicans have been test-driving attacks against Clinton for a year and a half, no other line of attack has broken through to this degree. The numbers in a new Quinnipiac University poll are striking: More than 3-in-5 voters, 61 percent, think Clinton isn’t honest and trustworthy. Overall, Clinton’s favorability ratings slipped to 39 percent — her lowest rating since Quinnipiac began polling on Clinton after she and her husband left the White House.

Well, der Hildebeeste said with a smirk,
“It’s well known I abhor honest work!
Even though people die,
I’ll continue to lie
For an overpaid job I can shirk.”

I would NEVER write off a Clinton. Bill Clinton could have a third term if there was not a Constitutional amendment against it.
Hillary! wants this so badly that there is absolutely nothing she won’t do.
