Hillary Clinton’s Approval Numbers Return to Earth — WSJ/NBC Poll (They're dropping like a rock)
Wall Street Journal ^ | September 9, 2014 | Patrick O'Connor

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.

Running a true American who can articulate conservative principles to the masses is a prescription for winning.

Running a GOPe-annointed go along/get along type is a prescription for losing.

Maybe you haven’t been paying attention.
