Here is a current readout results of the Drudge Report on-line poll, asking if Hillary Clinton should make another run for POTUS.
- No votes - 215,000 - 66% - Yes votes - 112,000 - 34%
Those results call out a political slaughter of Ms. Clinton, but, they do not relate the entire status of the poll and its devastating, political impact of failure for Ms. Clinton.
The readings of blogs, Twitter and numerous internet posts shows that at least half of the cast yes votes for Ms. Clinton are gleefully cast by voters who wish to see her run once more, so that she can suffer an unheard of Trump defeat, once again. That leaves Ms. Clinton with a sad total of 17% yes votes of fools that wish for her to run for POTUS victory, once more.
Methinks Hillary Clinton is Toast...not really burnt toast. IMHO, She ain't going nowhere, politically. What say you?
Don’t give up Hillary. Run as an independent. It is your turn.
Having Hillary run again would be God’s own gift to President Trump, and Operation Chaos raised to the 100th power.
Maxine/Ocasio 2020.
This ticket will be tough to beat
Forgot to add the Berniebots to the mix too. Thanks. Throw in the chaos of the Democrats convention in Chicago in 1968 and you have the political equivalent of a massive food fight! Also, you have Blacks, Hispanics and the LGBT all maneuvering for dominance in the party. One would be a fool to think these three groups want to share power equally amongst themselves!
hellery is a loser. she needs to run again
It’s crap..................
Even flags want to avoid her.
... in Venezuela!
No, it’s not a scientific poll...it’s not even really a poll just a bit of an in-joke...but still amusing.
But if we learned nothing else from 2016 it’s that so-called scientific polling is a steaming pile of offal, with confirmation biases, fiddling of numbers before and after polling and an apparent inability to ask questions that will elicit accurate responses.
Then there are the sampling errors. In 2016 pollsters STILL relied primarily on landline calls made via robodialer. The calls further relied on persons bored, gullible, foolish, lonely or mad enough to:
a) answer the phone during dinner/evening hours,
b) answer the phone without using Caller ID or answering the phone when Caller ID shows some anodyne front company like ‘Research Inc.
c) sit through 15-20 min of questions, many of them repetitive, ambiguous, or restricted to certain answers when none of the answers may be an accurate reflection of their views
d) divulge race, sexual orientation, age, income, occupation, religion, party affiliation, family size, etc. to a complete stranger working for minimum wage in a call center
e) still pay for useless landline service
Pollsters will attempt to mask their flaws by claiming they also used cell calls, e-mail surveys, online surveys, etc. but electronic spam is just as bad or worse than junk calls at home therefore the conversion rate is worse and probably even less accurate.
Polling aside, the death grip the Clintons have on the Democrat Party is, at this point, fascinating to watch rather than dangerous. Their marriage has been a sham since the 70s. There is every possibility that they are not both the biological parents of Chelsea Clinton. Bill’s philandering is an open secret now, as Ed Klein’s books relate, as is the fact that they have not lived under the same roof since leaving the White House.
The ex-president lauded as having ‘the best political gifts of the last two decades’ was forced to deputize for Hillary on the campaign trail (more on that below). The media enthused about their ‘rock star’ but soon realized, to their chagrin, that Bill Clinton couldn’t draw ants to a picnic. Worse, he was heckled frequently about his Lewinsky misadventures. He was quietly withdrawn from the rally schedule.
And then....there’s Hillary. Keen eyed observers will note that her most vocal supporters have very little to say about her good or bad. They certainly don’t blame her for losing a ‘sure thing’ even though she is Goat #1 but certainly not the only culprit. ‘I’m With Her’ has changed almost completely to ‘I Hate Trump’...but then the latter slogan was effectively the slogan of Hillary’s campaign for the final push.
Mentally she’s round the bend but physically she is a wreck. She was always a gawky and uncoordinated (’hopelessly butch’ in the famous words of Camille Paglia) but her long years of sedentary living and long years of quite actively bending the elbow have wrecked her health. There is every chance she has the early signs of MS or Parkinson’s and is probably swallowing the contents of a small pharmacy every day, including painkillers or nervous-system drugs which would affect her alertness and cognition as well as psychotropic drugs for depression, anxiety, etc. The woman is not physically fit enough to walk 1 mile unaided. The idea that she should be in charge of nuclear codes and the combined might of the US military is too ludicrous for words.
Her post-election rants are equal parts pathos and comedy. Sequestered for over a quarter of a century, she is literally out of touch with everyday life, even reality. She must be actually coached on how to act like a normal person - an appalling prospect but for her a necessary one.
If she is planning to run again, one might expect her to pull a Nixon and do interviews on policy wonkery and make the rounds of kissing babies (poor babies) etc. Instead, she imagines she’s Phyllis Diller and is booked onto chat shows where her utter lack of humor and self-awareness have her making snide remarks about the current First Lady and generally shoveling blame into everyone’s lap but hers.
Finally, despite its entirely fatuous origin and purpose, it seems that Hillary actually believes the Russia Collusion fairy tale. It is more instinctive self-protection? Is it an attempt to keep the story on the back burner just in case? Whatever her thoughts or motives, she has placed a huge bet on a three-legged rocking horse and like the rest of the swamp will be badly disappointed when Mueller fails miserably.
I was sick of the Clintons in, oh, 1992 or so but watching them play sandbag to the Democrat balloon is somewhat amusing.
I would like to see her run again. I think it will be a crowded field on the Democrat side, and she won’t last longer than the first few primaries. However, as she sees her last chance at the White House slipping away, the Clinton smear machine will reveal all kinds of dirt on her competitors in a bid to keep her candidacy afloat.
But you underestimate the greed of a Clinton. It drives them. It is their “raison d’être”.
She will get their gang together again intimidate and threaten anyone who gets in her way.
Remember, had she won in 2016, she would be running for REELECTION in 2020 now...........................
The poll means nothing. While the DNC was solidly in her corner on the last election cycle, they will run from her next election cycle. So even if she ran she would not win the nomination in the next upcoming presidential election cycle.
Hillary campaign for 2020 will destroy the Democrats Party. That’s why I voted for her to go for it
I voted yes, myself.
She’s not going to run. Just another cr@p sandwich fed to us by the clickbait crowd.
I agree, with you, I usually have little faith in “Online Polls” but, I must admit, the Drudge Report “Online Polls” during the 2016 primary and general election pretty much showed the winning trend that trump was on.
I voted “YES” a number of times. I think it would be a laugh riot every day if she ran again! Plus, it would take the air out of the sails of other candidates on her side.
All in all, she ought to run!
Even if a high percentage of participants in the polls were Dems?
OK, now I see how she got 34%. Wishful thinking for a poor candidate by conservatives?
