I think Zogby has her up 8%, but only 3% in a matchup against Jesus.

Sounds comforting but the 15% MSM push hasn't begun in earnest yet.

That was a "generic" congressional match-up, not in reference to the presidential race.

The Democrats have been winning those fantasy polls for the past decade...and have lost the ultimate poll-on election day-for the past decade.

Go figure.

True but he was the sitting President and that's common.

Well, methinks that hillary's candidacy will be a fund-raising booster for the Republicans: she's hated so much that 2004 generosity would be significantly increased.

How about starting with something consequential?

Like the illegal technology transfers to China?

I used to worry about Hillary. Not anymore.

I am convinced that, if she is the Democrat's 2008 nomine, the Republican candidate will be elected and serve two terms (whoever it is).
