Hillary Winning - Most Popular & Most Unpopular
Canada Press ^ | October 24, 2007 | JB Williams

Posted on 10/24/2007 7:41:47 AM PDT by PlainOleAmerican

According to the latest CBS News poll (Oct. 12-16), Hillary Clinton is receiving 46 percent of the love from her party faithful and leading the Democrat primary race for the 2008 general election. But according to the latest Zogby poll, she’s also leading the race for the most despised candidate in the country…

Zogby asked the question, “Whom would you NEVER vote for, for President of the U.S.?”

With the Presidents public approval rating around 30 percent and congress all the way down at 11 percent, what a great question! Zogby asked this question of 9,718 “likely voters” (Democrats, Republicans and Independents) and Hillary tops the list of candidates people would NEVER vote for.

50 percent of those polled said that they would NEVER vote for Hillary Clinton under any circumstance, which means the other 50 percent who say they would, have lost their collective minds. Leading the other Party as the most unpopular Republican candidate is Libertarian Ron Paul. 47 percent of Americans said they would NEVER vote for him either.

There's a scenario that gets Hillary elected that doesn't require a Third Party run (like Ross Perot)...

Rooty, McCain, Huck... either one of these guys could mean defeat.

Nobody I know would ever vote for her either, but then I don’t hang out with people who tune into Hardball or The View...

All Democrats are working on this, those in politics and those behind politics. Google, Yahoo, MSN and AOL have been dumping conservative news from search results for a few years now. Any story that does not agree with their politics is now “hate-speech” and dumped from the search results. Same for most major conservative blogs...

I know, I’m just showing you the information Zogby has made available. I have seen no report of how many came from which party...

Exactly...

But “who” is the “real conservative” that can unite the Republican vote?

It sure isn’t Libertarian Ron Paul...

And Hunter, Tancredo and Huckabee are NOT connecting with conservative voters either.

Hillary has the BIGGEST donors, not the most donors.

Look for the MSM to ramp up lots of "Why you suddenly love Hillary" articles in coming months (The MSM doesn't tell you what to think -- it tells you what you're already thinking, as long as it agrees with their agenda).

Opposition to Clinton among Democratic and Republican women revealed mirror opposite attitudes, the Zogby Interactive survey showed. While 83% of Republican women said they would never vote for her, just 17% said they could possibly cast a ballot for her. Among Democratic women, just 17% said they would never vote for Hillary, while 83% said they could.

Democratic women appear smitten by former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina and Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois – just 11% said they could never vote for them for President. Republican women, on the other hand, find former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney most attractive – just 14% said they would never vote for him. Tied for a close second was former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who were found to be objectionable by just 15% of Republican women.

Look for a massive campaign to run down the economy from the klintons and the MSM. This big lie worked in ‘92, and since the war has turned against them, they’ll try this one again. Hide and watch.

I agree that Thompson is the best choice in 2008. I also believe that he is the ONLY Republican candidate who can win “most” of the conservative vote. All others will leave conservative voters at home, voting third party or jumping ship in anger...

The RNC nominee will have to unite the Republican vote. Rudy McRomney can’t do it. Neither can any of the third tier candidates who have yet to break above 5% among Republican voters.

Thompson is the ONLY one who can... but he had better get on with it.

Everything will be on the table...

They will fight to undercut our soldiers and embolden our enemies.

They will work to run the economy down and redefine “unemployment” now that we have the lowest unemployment in decades.

They will try to further destroy private health care in order to make socialized medicine the only viable answer to a problem they created.

They will continue to silence truth and spread anti-American propaganda to their voting base, who have NEVER asked what they can do for their country, only what their country can do for them...

They will leave no stone unturned in their quest for TOTAL political dominance.

There are millions of voters out there like me who only go to the polls to vote against something or somebody.

Guess who I’ll be voting against?

The Bush Administration and the Republican Congress failed--through sheer foolishness and their ridiculous, unpopular, and politically suicidal policies.

They handed Congress to the Democrats on a silver platter in 2006, and they have managed to alienate just about everybody--notably me, a Broken Glass Republican--by their ridiculous antics--notably refusing to enforce U.S. immigration laws; refusing to close and fortify the borders; spending money like there's no tomorrow; increasing the size, reach, and appetite of that Frankenstein's monster known as the Federal Government; increasing entitlements, e.g. prescription drugs; et al.!

It is heartening to know that the Democrat Congress has so low an approval rating, and this despite the unceasing pro-Democrat propaganda blitzkrieg conducted by the Democrat Party Propaganda Machine, aka the "Mainstream Newsmedia".

If the Republicans nominate someone reasonably acceptable and conduct a smart campaign, they have an excellent chance of electing a Republican President in 2008. It would be wise for them to denounce the absurd policies of George W. Bush and to praise his wise policies, e.g. his Supreme Court choices. They will be on sound and fertile ground--and, of utmost importance, truthful--in denouncing the insanity, depravity, and reckless irresponsibility of the Democrats!

Electing a Republican Congress will be an uphill battle. But, considering the electorate's low opinion of the Democrat Party, it is possible. And it must be tried. The fate of the nation and the fate of the world depend upon it.

Reasonable people must band together to defeat the Democrats. This must be the single overriding issue of the election. We cannot afford to do otherwise. The fate of our nation and of our children depend upon it.

Az mail-in ballots are now Postage Paid on the return envolope.This will stop overseas military ballots from being thrown out for so-called lack of postage.IIRC this happened in Florida 2000 election.

I am starting my ping list with this post.You all are welcomed to take this idea and run with it.
