"an entrenched bloc of voters who simply do not like her."
What's to like? And why does the MSM treat this as a huge puzzlement without ever exploring the justification for it? Or why her husband is so habitually unfaithful to her??
I agree.
"No one factor accounts for the deep misgivings many voters express for Clinton, but to some degree it stems from a view that has taken hold, fairly or not, that she is a hugely ambitious woman with a liberal agenda that was most significantly illustrated in her efforts to overhaul the nation's health-care system during her husband's presidency."
Giant hurl! There is one factor -- she's a lying, communist skank. How hard is that to understand?
