I'm referring to negative-based questions about Hillary Clinton. I think they help more than hurt her. Press is press - and she has her name going for her, whether it is repeated in a positive way or not. They're making her into this big star or something.
Not the best example...but look at Britney Spears. She's trashed in the media everywhere (maybe rightfully so) meanwhile she's #1 or #2 on Billboard when her new stuff came out. Or even when Kerry ran against George W. Everyone was busy talking about George whether it be good or bad and the limelight was taken from Kerry completely.

You have a very good point. It's press, period. And part of the fall out could be a weariness for all of the repetitive and unartful attacks on her. I've talked to more than a few people who don't even listen to that garbage because they had a belly full of swiftboating from the last Presidential election. So the ever rabid anti-Hillary crowd may be handing her more votes than taking them away. On this site alone, the amount of "Hillary" questions are unbelievable. No other candidate receives near this much attention. Will it backfire? It seems that it might. Which is okay with me, since I do plan on voting for her. I say let them rave on. It's had zero effect on her high numbers by the way. The only thing that has had a negative effect was the last debate, and even with the drop in her numbers she is still far and away the front runner. If she has a good debate this week on CNN, her numbers will climb back up again. The Hillary Haters themselves have not had the effect they desire on her or her supporters. In fact, the only effect they seem to have at all is making each other chuckle and beat their chests in unison.

I think most of the anti Hillary questions are good press because those askers are part of those who'll never vote for her anyway. People who believe things like she murdered people (the Clinton bodycount and other fabricated stories) love asking questions about that and then picking a best answer that Agrees with them.
What the American right fails to understand is that their little fringe maybe very jubilant about that type of questions but that they to everyone else only show conservatives are afraid of Hillary. And we know why they are afraid, Hillary will bring back honor and decency to the white house and America.
She'll restore America's reputation in the world and she will not be swift boated

Personal observation . . . it's amazing how many moderate politicians the Republican's can cough up when they are running against Hillary . . . not a new world order guy in the bunch.

all press is good press- it gets the person's name out there. The politicians have learned best by taking notes from Hollywood.

I am very amazed how well she is doing. My take on Hillary is there is something about that I don't trust about her. Furthermore, her explanations on issues does not give me a sense of what she believes because she wavers back n' forth. Don't you love it how she wants to slap all her program ideas on middle Americans. I'll say she is a well groomed orator, except when she makes southern speeches. Remember that one?

With enough bad press maybe people will wake up and realize the type of sleaze the Clintons are.

It is bad for her campaign because Obama is starting to surge in the polls
