Hillary's Image Changed, Along With Country
NY Newsday ^ | January 8, 2004 | Marie Cocco (aka "Cukoo")

Posted on 01/08/2004 6:09:18 AM PST by presidio9

She did not make the journey from object of curiosity to subject of esteem all by herself. Hillary Rodham Clinton seems to have brought the country along with her.

The annual Gallup poll that asks Americans to name the man and woman living anywhere in the world whom they most admire has again produced predictable winners. The man is, hands down, President George W. Bush. The woman is, hands down, Hillary.

The woman Americans most love to express opinions about has been lodged at or near the top of the "most-admired" list since her husband ran for president in 1992. This is the predictable part. In the history of the poll, first ladies and other political wives have often, but not always, been named most admired.

How many hanging, dinged, indented, or microscopic chads did they have to scrounge to steal this poll?

If these bozos (including Hillary and her handlers) really think her image has migrated to most admired female...why don't they jump in the 2004 presidential contest?

Why they don't is because they really don't believe the BS (that they have created, and nurtured) about her being "the most admired"!

Sadly, she really is "The Most Admired Woman In America." However, she is also "The Most Hated Woman In America." There is no middle ground with Senator Clinton.

Notice how they never show clips of her shrill, grating, fingernails-on-the-chalkboard political speeches on TV. I wonder how "admired" she would be if they did.

Vogue magazine named her as one of the outstanding women of '03. Along with The Chicks and other liberal women.

Obviously not; or they would know that Hitlery is the world's least admired woman.

So HILLARY is now America's Most Admired Woman..?

If ADOLF HITLER had had TV up his sleeve, the way HILLARY does now, he would have won World War II.

And so now what of World War III..?

The Clintons are a lot of things, but stupid (in comparison to their followers) isn't one of them. Take the 04 elections for instance. All over the US, everyone thinks that the 9 dwarves are running for the Rat nomination. They're not.

The Ankle has had the nomination ever since Terry McAwful was installed as the party chief. X42 installed him there for this very race, and after he completes his part of the bargain he's useless.

Since the Rats decided that 40% of their convention delegates are 'Superdelegates', in a move thought by many to be to keep someone like Dean out of the picture, the truth is much different. Both of these maneuvers were designed explicitly for Her Heinous in 2004.

Since she's "the most admired woman", no doubt that she will get over 11% of the votes in write-ins. That in itself is no big deal. But when the superdelegates are added to that 11% you now have a majority. (Those superdelegates answer to McAwful only, not to the voters.) So here comes The Ankle winning the Rat nomination without going to a single debate, no new negative soundbites, no attacks from within. She's been raising lots of money, and being installed as the nominee fits her perfectly.

Sorry Dean. You had lost already.

We need to find the stats from all the years and she how far she has fallen to get what 16 percent in 2004? I wonder where we can get the results for the last 12 years.
