The more Hillary Clinton looks like a candidate, the less invincible she appears.
The former first lady and New York senator enjoyed sky-high approval ratings during her tenure as President Barack Obama’s secretary of state, but her numbers have returned to earth since she traded her perch as the nation’s top diplomat for her current role as the Democrats’ top presidential prospect in 2016.
The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll found 43% of registered voters view Ms. Clinton positively, compared with the 41% who harbor negative views. That’s a steep drop from February 2009 when 59% viewed the newly confirmed secretary of state positively and just 22% held negative views. The numbers suggest Americans are far less charitable about Ms. Clinton when she is seeking office or, in this case, merely considering it than they are about other politicians who retire from public office.

You bad old Freepers probably shouldn't be too hard on the poverty stricken old broad with your comments when she is temporarily down in her luck.
Note: There's an excellent graphic in the article showing the World's Smartest Woman's approval ratings over time.
Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi.
I went into Walmart tonight to pick up Jesus On Trial and 13 Hours In Benghazi. All of Hillary’s books that had been sitting there gathering dust for quite a while were gone. I guess they had a big run on her book. LOL!
Tune in next week to see Hillary singing a duo with Paul Simon called “Love You Like a Rock!”
Hitlery has a glass jaw, as proven by Hussein in 2008.
Hillary’s books were at Costco about a month ago. Seemed like a pallet load of them, but then they were gone the next week.
I wouldn’t get too excited. She’s got the msm behind her and feminazi’s have got her back as well. Add in the die hard Dem voter, the illegal vote and the cemetary vote and we’re still looking at a formidable opponent.
Her qualifications, capabilities, record as SoS, or her ‘intellect’ will be irrelevant.
Better run Cruz and Palin or Bachmann.
Hag, hag, hag.
Hitlery won’t run.
The Woman who Fell to Earth!
I’m tired of people who think this woman is invincible in 2016. She may have the Clinton name but has nowhere near the political skills of Billy. Her poll numbers are dropping and that’s why you see more of Uncle Joe, Elizabeth Warren, Andrew Cuomo, and Martin O’Malley out on the stump. C’mon, we know the media won’t tell us anything but the fact that you’ve got these Democrats making more public appearances lately means they think she’s beatable.
” Better run Cruz and Palin or Bachmann. “
You wanna LOSE ???
No, if we wanted to lose we’d just run Romney again.
Or a Bush.
The fact that numbers can change that fast tell us just how fickle and stupid most Americans are.
You wanna LOSE ???
I take it that your response is sarc? Right? If not, solid, unabashed Christian Conservatives are not only surefire winners but will restore the Biblical foundations upon which America was built. While I strongly believe that Governor Sarah Palin will be inaugurated on January 2017, Senator Ted Cruz or Congressman Michele Bachmann are fine choices. All three are shrewd, capable, smart and truly honor the Constitution. I'll also add our fine Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert to that list. He too would make an outstanding Commander in Chief.
Hill’s looking better than I’ve seen her in a long time. Has she lost weight?
No...tells you just how much media is lying to us.
America is a bunch of sexists. Why can’t people just bow their knees to Hitlery?
Yeah.. that “big run” likely means, “shunted off to Dollar General.”
The problem is, America doesn’t do Conservative anymore, at the national level. Much as we might like Palin, she’s damaged goods from years of media bashing.
