Dick Morris: Hillary’s Appeal is Fading

March 29, 2007

It’s now obvious that Hillary Clinton’s negatives are rising among American voters. A Harris Interactive survey says that a majority will not vote for her, and a Gallup poll this week finds her favorability among Democratic primary voters dropping from 82 percent in January, to 74 percent in March.

By itself, this slippage would not be fatal. But it begs the key question: Why is Hillary dropping?

Usually a candidate only falls in the polls when she is attacked by her rivals, or is the object of a major scandal. Yet, Obama and Edwards are treating her with kid gloves — avoiding even the most gentile of criticisms. So noteworthy are their all-positive campaigns, that when Obama’s fund-raiser, David Geffen, knocked Bill for his pardons, it became the central campaign event in January.

And, for once in her life, Hillary is not currently on the griddle for any scandal. There are no daily exposes of her financial or Bill’s marital misconduct. Nobody is hitting Hillary.

The real bad news for her campaign is that Hillary is losing support — not due to any attacks on her, but because people are watching her wage her positive campaign, and are concluding that they just don’t like her.

It is Hillary’s own campaign appearances that are driving up her negatives!

Hillary Clinton’s Bitter Pill: Women can’t stand her

March 29, 2007

Hillary Clinton’s polling numbers are tumbling, but the real shocker is how poorly she is faring with the female electorate. According to the recent Rasmussen poll, 43% of women say they will not vote for Hillary. And the latest poll by John Zogby reported an almost identical number — 42% of women would not vote for Mrs. Clinton under any circumstances.

What will Bill’s impact be?

March 29, 2007

President Bill Clinton

The former leader of the free world cast a spell across a stilled ballroom as he recalled his history with the woman he hopes will be the next leader of the free world.

“We met and had our first date 36 years ago this month — this very month,” Bill Clinton told hundreds of donors at a fundraiser last week as his wife looked on fondly. He said that by the next year, 1972, he was professing his love to Hillary Rodham and his belief that she was the best leader of their generation. “She’s still the best,” Clinton said to cheers, and he wrapped the New York senator in a hug.

Hillary Rodham Clinton has no more enthusiastic supporter than her husband in her bid to be the first female president. He is putting his strategic skills, fundraising clout and fabled charisma to work for her as the pair build a campaign juggernaut designed to crush her Democratic rivals.

Hillary: The Democrats Big Dilemma

March 28, 2007

Hillary Rodham Clinton
The national Democratic Party just can’t catch a break. True, they’ve captured Congress and have an unpopular GOP President to rally against in the run-up to the 2008 Presidential Election.

They even have an extraordinarily well-known, well-funded frontrunner for the Democratic nomination. What could be better?

Just one problem: she’s Hillary Clinton, and half of the country has already declared that they won’t be voting for her. That’s according to the reputable Harris Poll, just out this week. 2,223 potential voters participated nationwide.

In fact, over one in five Democrats in the survey said they would not vote for Clinton. Overall, Clinton garnered only 36 percent of those participating, and to beat all, 11 percent said that they are unsure of their top choice! Other Harris Poll findings on Hillary:

Forty-eight percent of Independent voters said that they would choose some other candidate over Clinton;

Fifty-six percent of men said that they would not vote for Clinton;

Perhaps most alarming for Clinton supporters: 45 percent of women said that Hillary would not be their choice.

And she’s got work to do bigtime with the senior citizens of America, with 69 percent of those 62 and older said that they would not vote for Clinton.

Hillary Buys Another Big Endorsement

March 28, 2007

Just weeks after paying $210,000 for the coveted endorsement of an influential southern black pastor, Hillary Clinton has agreed to double the money for the crucial endorsement of the leading politician in the state with the first presidential caucus.

At the important Iowa caucus Clinton will have the backing of Governor Tom Vilsack, who dropped out of the 2008 presidential race last month because he said it would be impossible to raise enough money to compete with the likes of Clinton and Illinois Senator Barack Obama.
