Gallup Poll - New Yorkers Give Hillary Clinton Green Light to Seek White House

Gallup Poll ^ | November 10, 2006

The results aren't really surprising.

This is a special case because Bill Clinton promised on television in 1990 that, if re-elected, he would serve his full four-year term as governor of Arkansas. Of course, he broke that promise and started campaigning for president a year later. Clinton basically abandoned Arkansas during his presidential campaign, leading to a budget crisis and other problems. He only returned when he needed a hideout in the mansion, away from reporters seeking comment on the Gennifer Flowers affair. Unfortunately, the New York GOP failed to capitalize on that earlier example of Clinton treachery.

This is just a perception but it seems to me that this was one of the least reported races in the nation. People I rarely heard of got way more coverage by losing than her victory did.

In 2000, Hillie received 3,438,999 votes. In 2006, Hillie got 2,811,981.

Bigger turnout in a presidential election year

The majority of people in New York (or at least among those surveyed) are less intelligent than I had previously thought.

New Yorkers returned the former first lady to office not only believing she will seek, but will also win, the Democratic nomination for president in 2008.

Did these same New Yorkers ask Hillary to answer the rape allegation against her husband? Seems to me that I remember that 67% of the American public believed Juanita Broadderick's charge that she was raped by Hillary's husband?

Let's stop focusing on Mrs. Clinton.

Let's spend our energies to find the right and best Republican candidate---the one who represents us and the majority of America.

We nominate the right candidate, I promise you no one will remember what "New Yorkers Gave Hillary".

"Let's spend our energies to find the right and best Republican candidate---the one who represents us and the majority of America. "

And who might that be? Some RINO like McCain or Guiliani?

Condi could rip the Democrat Party apart by taking some of the black and some of the female vote.

Or can we afford another neocon?

I'm really afraid of another Democrat President, especially Hillary.

[Man of the Right]

If they didn't give her the green light, she'd run the red.
