WASHINGTON - Recent polls show the public's image of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., gradually morphing from sharply controversial First Lady to centrist constituent-minded senator. Although still a polarizing figure, the first-term lawmaker could use the makeover to position herself for a White House run in 2008.
Political strategists say Clinton has impressed Senate colleagues and constituents by working methodically on New York issues while taking moderate or conservative stances on controversies such as the war in Iraq.
"A majority feel positive toward her," said Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. "She's being seen as being more effective and sticking to her job. She's managed to shape her role in a way that's more acceptable. She's in a transition."

Rudy Guiliani will run against her in 2006 and take her senate seat away from her. Her bid for the presidency will seem pretty ridiculous when she can't even hold her senate seat.
Yep, to be the next liberal scum bag to get their @ss kicked.
Un-el-ectable... that's what YOU are...
And so it begins...
I hope her people don't read that. She'll dig out her old Goldwater Girl outfit and squeeze into it. Yeeeecch!
and supported by a guy from the "marxist" institute!!!!!!!!!!
It is up to US to get the truth out about Shillary -- the corrupt old media isn't going to do it, and the masses have very short memories.
Perhaps she should try SlimFast?
uh huh... Translation: "We, the media, will now attempt to convince you that this lunatic is a conservative."
She may not fly in the bible belt today, but in 3 years, who knows.

In other words, she's blowing with the wind.....I predict we'll hear her quote scripture in the upcoming months. Ooooooh these people just don't get it!
Yes..and one of those was the result of an anomoly called Perot.
She only has to fool %40 in a 3-way contest. Don't forget 1992 and HRossPerot, the Texas billionair who ran for president with his own money.
I don't know why people keep saying "extreme."
Not only is it not extreme but I think I'll be more popular than Bill...at least with the woman's vote..." 
She has a 45% unfavorable rating. That's going to be tough to overcome.
"She's in transition."
not true. she's just molting.
