Poll: Hillary Reaches Republican Women (Just who the heck are they polling?)
WINS NEWS ^ | 2/25/05

Posted on 02/25/2005 9:30:52 AM PST by areafiftyone

A recent Gallup poll indicates that Democratic Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's strength among women reaches into Republican and Independent circles.

The finding, analysts say, could give her a much better chance of winning a general election should she seek the presidency in 2008.

The poll also shows that the junior New York senator has a more favorable image among women than men, 58 percent women as opposed to 48 percent of men.

Gerald Benjamin, dean of the liberal arts college at SUNY at New Paltz says Clinton has wooed voters by staking out centrist positions on a range of issues including abortion and the war in Iraq.

The Director of the Marist Institute of Polling, Lee Miringoff, said that although the support among women is beneficial, Clinton is far from getting the party's Democratic nomination, should she decide to run.

I don't have a subscription to Gallup so I can't find out if this was a NY poll or a U.S. Poll!

Condi somewhere on the GOP ticket could largely neutralize that threat.

Carolyn McCarthy, said she had to support Cuomo because he was against the death penalty for murderers, and considered herself proudly Catholic.

She then got elected to congress and proceeded to vote against a ban on partial birth abortion.

Carolyn McCarthy represents my childhood congressional district. I miss Ray McGrath. Heck, I even miss Dan "No Show" Frisa compared to Carolyn.

Betcha the poll's not cooked.

Bubba drew well in Pubbie women in 1992 and 1996. There are enough Pubbie women around who will vote for the Girl ticket unless they are given a reasonable alternative.

This is one of the reasons I'm a big Rice supporter.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Somebody has to tell the media that there is nothing centrist about someone lying about their distaste for abortions and then still supporting it by law. This is still a lefty view.
