If Hillary is so unfavorable, why is she leading? I dont get it?

Answer 1

Sorry to burst your bubble, she is not leading.

Answer 2

Why the big shock? Take a look at the dwarfs she is running against in the dem party. It is wise though not to get over confident. So far the Main stream media has given her a free ride. Only recently have her opponents come out after her. Remember, back in late 03 Howard Dean was thought to be unstoppable. The fact that she enjoys a lead does not take away from the fact that she has the highest percentage of people in this country that would never vote for her as well. As a Republican I can only hope she wins the nomination.

Answer 3

The republicans, have a lousy bunch running for their nomination, if Guiliani wins the nomination then Hillary becomes President, because their veiws are pretty similar on a lot of issues, and because the republican voters don't particularly like or trust Guiliani, the republicans are in trouble at the moment, if either Thompson or Romney can shine or some unknown can come from no where things might change, other than that then Hillary will be a shoo-in.

Answer 4

Latest polls had Clinton losing near half her lead over Obama (Fox News Chris Wallace Sunday show) . He is only trailing by 10 odd points. Mostly men 35-40 ish losing faith. Women are still a base. They must not read much? This is no time to vote gender? Anyway, no real LIVE votes have been counted. If Media Matters and with 300 million in the piggy pork bank Clinton can run her own polls. About as accurate as the question planted about Global Warming. When people will wake up this is politics, Clinton. Has been for 36 yrs?! It's the obvious that must just baffle them.

Answer 5

The simple answer is that a majority of Americans think she is the best candidate. She's smart, articulate, has a record of working across the aisle in the Senate, has good ideas about real problems and honestly cares about ordinary Americans. Sure, there are sexists who are aghast that we might choose any woman as president, and of course Republicans are so deep in denial about their sudden fall from grace that they believe it must be some kind of conspiracy.

Don't take what you read here too seriously. If you go by Yahoo, we're winning the war in Iraq, Saddam really did have WMDs, global warming is a hoax, evolution is a liberal conspiracy, and Ron Paul will be the next president.

Answer 6

She leads because she will win, she's in to win. The elite and the powers that be have already choosen Clinton. This unfavorable is an attack from the right, they are scared, but know she has what it takes to win.

Answer 7

As someone has all ready said, she is the same as a republican candidate - all for big business and Israel. And she has the money and connections, as Georgie boy did in the past.

Seriously, Americans, did many of you ever think an incompetent such as George W. would win the republican nomination?

Is truly not about merit in your nation.

Answer 8

Its an illusion that she is that unfavorable, just like the posts that say President Bush is a lier. It is posted a lot by by few, truth is she has lots of followers just like President Bush has supporters.

Answer 9

There are a small number of people that think she's to die for and a larger number that don't see a viable alternative. It is the same mistake the dems made in the last presidential election.

Answer 10

she is leading, because there has been no debate between her and republican candidates. she won't lead after those debates

as far as being democrat runner, she is leading because she has her husband on her side. remember most people when answering poll questions tend to pick the name they are most familiar with. clinton sounds a lot like president clinton (her husband).

Answer 11

Unfavorable to who, Republicans? Most of them aren't going to vote for any democrat so it doesn't really matter what they think of her.
