Poll: Most voters knew nothing of Clinton abortion speech

ALBANY, N.Y. Most New York voters don't think it's possible to find common ground on the issue of abortion, despite Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's urging that they attempt to do.

That's according to a new poll out today from the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.

The survey of some 12-hundred registered voters in New York state asked about Clinton's recent speech in Albany to fellow abortion rights supporters in which she called for all sides in the debate to find "common ground" in an effort to reduce the number of abortions.

The speech has been seen in some quarters as an attempt by Clinton to move to a more centrist position in preparation for a White House run.

But 63 percent of those surveyed said they knew nothing at all about the speech and 55 percent said they didn't believe it was possible to find common ground on the issue.

If women were to have disappeared from the planet, nobody would've cared about Scott and Lacey. The secretaries at my office were OBSESSED with that case.

Man, she's tough on the eyes.

Was thinking that myself and then couldn't leave it alone. Tried to imagine what she would look like after 4 years in the White House knowing how badly it aged past Presidents.
(In case you are interested, she'd look like Helen Thomas plus twenty years.)

Hatellary Rodhamster stood in the Senate to try and defeat the ban on partial birth abortion. She is now peeing on the American people, trying to convince us that she's a moderate on abortion and that we who believe 99.99% of abortions are serial killing of alive human beings should compromise with her and usher her to her fated throne.

BTW, her peeing on folks is the clinton way of warming you up to their brand of parsing.

As Queen of AmeriKa, and mistress of choice, I demand that we all accept find common ground for the Sacrament of Abortion. Yeesss, that's the ticket...common ground.

Hillary looks like she may not be well. Maybe she really did faint.
