POLL: DEMS FAVOR HILLARY CLINTON IN '04

WASHINGTON (Dec. 22) - John Kerry and Joseph Lieberman have the most support among Democrats when asked about the field of likely 2004 candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination, a poll suggests.

But Hillary Rodham Clinton would lead if she were to enter the field.

Among the current field of likely candidates, Democrats put Sens. Kerry of Massachusetts and Lieberman of Connecticut at 16 percent followed by Rep. Dick Gephardt of Missouri at 10 percent, with others in single digits. Twenty-four percent said they were unsure.

In an expanded field that included Clinton, the New York senator was the choice of 30 percent of registered Democrats in a Time/CNN poll released Saturday. Clinton aides have said consistently that she does not plan to run in 2004.

Trailing Clinton with 13 percent each were Kerry and Lieberman with others in single digits.

Previous polls of Democrats had put Al Gore, the 2000 Democratic nominee, at the top among potential 2004 candidates. When Clinton was included in those early polls, she was not far behind. Gore announced last weekend he would not run in 2004.

Such early polls are largely a measure of the public's familiarity with potential candidates.

Among the field of likely candidates, Kerry has formed an exploratory committee, Vermont Gov. Howard Dean says he is running and others say they will announce their intentions soon.

In hypothetical matchups against President Bush, Lieberman trailed 54-40 and Kerry was behind 55-40, according to registered voters surveyed.

The telephone survey of 1,006 adults, 18 and older, was conducted Tuesday and Wednesday, and had an error margin of plus or minus 3 percentage points, larger for subgroups.

How or why should HE when most Americans have and are bringing destruction upon themselves.

These liberties ( govt snooping, arrested and put in jail without consultation with your lawyer, and all the rest)that we are so willing to give up in the name of " war on terrorism" will be in the hands of the next administration.

Did any of ya think about that ?

Too many Blue Zoners will vote for anyone the party of handouts and preferences puts forward. And too many women will think that she's a "positive role model" for their daughters.

Real men don't let their wives, daughters, or female freinds and co-workers vote for Hillary!

[copycat]

Upon further investigation ( reading the entire box on AOL), it says that "Polls show Hillary could win Democratic Party Nomination".

Right. You'll notice the story did not mention how HRC would do against GWB, like they did for Kerry and Lieberman.

Probably too depressing for them.

Agreed DreamWeaver....but none of us are perfect....and no matter what we've done in life...we don't deserve Hitlery Clinton running our country.

and no matter what we've done in life...we don't deserve Hitlery Clinton running our country.

No, we certainly don't, but then remember, she cannot be in office if "the people/sheeple", don't put her there. Same thing with Xlintoon, he wouldn't have been in there if the people did not put him there, not one term but TWO !!
