Everywhere I look on TV and the web I hear lots of people who don't like her and lots of criticism, but does she honestly have a chance to win? Do you feel like the voters are ready for a woman to be lead our country?
I think she's very smart and capable, but here's just something about her that scares me if she were to become president.

I don't think she'd stand a chance. No one is ready for a woman President, particularly a liberal woman like Clinton.
There is so much dirt on that woman....if she comes out ready to run even the Democrats would be kicking the trash cans over to keep her from getting the nomination.
She'd reverse 50 years of work our country has done....I'm not ready for that.

I don't have a problem with a woman being president at all. It is not about a gender thing here people, it is who is most capable to do the job. But not Hillary. Don't trust her as far as I could throw her, if she told me water was wet, I would ask someone else to clarify it. Don't think for one minute she don't have her own personal sneaky adgenda. They pull way too much naughtys behind the scenes and think we won't find out about them.....duh. Condi would make a good president.

There are some male chauvanistic pigs answering this question. Yes, I think a woman is very capable of running this country. Here in Texas we had a lady governor and Texas ran better than ever. I think Hillary has a darn good chance of winning....As the saying goes" behind every good man there was an exceptional woman" you interpret that as you wish....

no chance I hope.
I too have bad vibes about her. She seems to change her "mind" based on what the advantage or loss odds are. Lucrative "supporters" wont give $$ if they cant buy support for their agenda yet voters may not vote if they really understand what "this" may do or change or cost in additional taxes...
Politicians work very hard to sell everything they need to get votes and "fiscal supporters/organizations"
She had been on both sides of the fence on the same question she has even gone under and over the fence...
Trustworthy? NO hinky? yes

I have no problem with voting for a woman and would love to see a woman run.
I have a serious problem with Hillary herself !
She could not succeed because most Republicans don't just dislike her, they hate her. Many people just don't like her, it's something to do with her personality and some of her ideas and the things she has done to her opponents.
I would vote for Condi if she ran. There are a few democrats I would vote for like Janet Napolitano or LIberman but they are more moderate not leftists.

I pray to God she never runs, and if she "does," that her chances are slim to none! She doesn't scare me, she does however make
me sick! I believe our country would be worse off than it ever has been. If we were to elect a a female for president, I would vote for Rice. She is fair, intelligent, forward without being rude, and she wouldn't decide if things didn't go right, it was be because of her race.

I'd be quite willing to vote for a woman, if one were running who impressed me more favorably than her competitors. But Hillary Clinton? You don't believe she maintained any semblance of integrity in the sh*t-wallow of Bill's scheming and scamming, do you? She's a dirty rat and the wife of a dirty rat.

One really doesn't know, but don't go by polls as they change!
You are right about one thing, if she ran it would be an uphill battle, as the polls do point out that 44% said they would not vote for her under any circumstance! I find that a little hard to believe, and I am sure men, who will not admit it, are unlikely to elect a woman president anytime soon!
That is too big of hill to climb!
A lot don't like her husband, but she presented herself well as the First Lady and kept internal issues just that, though I know that she and Chelsea must have suffered a lot!
There is no question she is smart!
After completing high school in 1965, Rodham enrolled at Wellesley College in Massachusetts where she became active in politics, serving, for a time, as President of the Wellesley College Chapter of the College Republicans. During her junior year at Wellesley in 1968, Rodham was affected by the death of the civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., whom she had met in person in 1962 [6]. After attending the Wellesley in Washington program at the urging of Professor Alan Schechter, her political views became more liberal and she joined the Democratic Party. Having been named valedictorian of her graduating class at Wellesley, Rodham graduated in 1969 with departmental honors in Political Science. She became the first student in the history of Wellesley College to deliver a commencement address when she spoke at her own graduation [7]. Her speech received a standing ovation and she was featured in an article published by Life magazine [8].
In 1969, Rodham entered Yale Law School where she served on the Board of Editors of Yale Review of Law and Social Action and worked with underprivileged children at the Yale-New Haven Hospital. During the summer of 1970, she was awarded a grant to work at the Children's Defense Fund in Cambridge, Massachusetts. During the summer of 1971, she traveled to Washington to work on Senator Walter Mondale's subcommittee on migrant workers, researching migrant problems in housing, sanitation, health and education. For the summer of 1972, Rodham worked in the western states for the Democratic presidential candidate George McGovern's campaign. During her second year in law school, she volunteered at the Yale Child Study Center, learning about new research on early childhood brain development. She also took on cases of child abuse at New Haven Hospital and worked at the city Legal Services, providing free legal service to the poor. She received a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from Yale in 1973, having written her widely recognized thesis on the rights of children [9], and began a year of post-graduate study on children and medicine at the Yale Child Study Center
She is equal or better than almost all of her counterparts in the Senate or Congress! Most of that period she was a Republican!

We're ready for a woman president, but not that woman.
