Hillary: How Do You Like Me Now? [Karl]

Sen. Hillary Clinton – the Great and Terrible — has been trying to get those early caucus and primary voters to like her, right down to offering them Christmas gifts — albeit gifts for which the voters would ultimately pay.  So, how’s she doing?

According to the latest numbers from Rasmussen, she is currently viewed unfavorably by 54% of all voters — the highest unfavorable rating for any of the Democratic or Republican presidential candidates.  But it is more than just a high unfavorable rating — she is tied with Mitt Romney for the highest level of core opposition among voters.  The results are particularly bad among swing voters:

Results among voters not affiliated with either major party show that 48% would definitely vote against Clinton. That’s the highest level of core opposition among unaffiliated voters encountered by any of the candidates in the survey. Giuliani is close—44% of unaffiliated voters would definitely vote against him.

Hope that a third-party candidacy might allow Hillary to win with less than 50% — as Bill did in 1992 — also take a hit when you see the high “anti” votes for Ron Paul and Michael Bloomberg. 

The good news for Hillary?  Bill has figured out the problem:

You become polarizing not because of what you do (but) because of what people say about you. That’s all that’s going on here.

Apparently, Bill is a believer in the “Big Lie” theory — that if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.  But you knew that, didn’t you?

    Why do people always say that Bill Clinton is somehow this superlatively bright man? He seems to sort of think on a basically undergraduate level at best I think which is ok but at some point you have to kind of grow beyond that or it looks like your development has been stunted.

    It really depends on what “Big” and “Lie” mean… When taken apart, we get “Big” and “Lie”… and “Big” is no “Big” deal, so we are left with “lie”, which sounds exactly lyke “lye”. So, really… I’m … erm… confused. What were we talking about?

    Hillary: How Do You Like Me Now?

    The scary thing about Hillary Clinton is that it does not matter how much people dislike her. And I mean even those in her own party. She will still be the Democrat candidate one way or the other. It does not matter how much it will hurt the party. She wi

    “Why do people always say that Bill Clinton is somehow this superlatively bright man?”

    Bill Clinton loves blow jobs. Who doesn’t? Blow jobs are like golf. Even when it’s bad, it’s still better than work.

    But having a chubby intern polishing your bean in the oval office, with the risk of leaning on “The Button” or even worse, seeing a cankle coming around a slowly opening door and you just know that that orthopedic shoe is going to get broken off in your ass. Now that’s a hummer! You gotta be some kind of sexual genius to pull that off.

    I still say the Repubs are missing the boat by not paying Monica a mil or two to follow Hil’s campaign around and sit in the front row of all her speeches. Now that’s news.
