Hillary v. Condi
Gallup has just released a poll on how many registered voters would vote for Hillary Clinton and Condi Rice.
Bad news for Hill’s juggernaut: a solid 51% of voters “definitely” would not vote for her. The graph at the right shows the breakdown by party affiliation.
The numbers for Clinton don’t surprise me. What does surprise are the high negatives for Condi Rice: 46% of voters would definitely not vote for her.
If you factor in the margin of error — +/- 3, then you have nearly a dead heat between these two.

I’m a Republican and Condi would not be my first choice, however, I think two different factors are driving these negatives:
1. Hillary’s are driven by what people know about her and don’t like.
2. Condi’s are driven by what people don’t know about her and concern about being untested, etc.
The Condi negative numbers could be improved. Hillary’s are very hard to alter.
those are also mythical numbers. as if there were no opponent.
standing in the voting booth, you’re going to press the red or the blue button.
Hillary Gets the (Crossed) Finger
Hillary Clinton with soldier signaling duressAn old picture of Hillary is going around. But there’s an updated message. In the marketing of politics negatives count. Any “product” that produces above 40% negative is in the red zone. Charmaine writes:…
Um, Rice has been in the national spotlight for over five years — and you think people don’t know enough about her? Doubt it.
It’s much more likely that America has watched her performance — shilling for non-existent WMDs in Iraq, claiming that ‘nobody could have known bin Laden would attack the US’ after her own office recieved a report in the July 2001 titled “Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside US” — and doesn’t need to see one more episode of The Condoleezza Show.
Searsie–you are so gonna ow me lunch
I love this picture/graph: Oh forget the Condi thing. No one is going to vote for a woman who sounds like she is afraid of her own shadow every time there is a camera on her. But I said Hillary
