Hillary And Romney Are Most Opposed

[sniffa]

Among the leading Presidential candidates, New York Senator Hillary Clinton and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney have the highest level of core opposition among voters. Forty-seven percent (47%) say they will vote against each of these candidates no matter who else is on the ballot.

1. Among Independents, which are essential to a general election win, 48% say they will vote agains her

This just reaffirms the recent Zogby and NBC/WSJ Polls that she is the least electable Dem.

2. That's because they have no core principles

and change their views based on the prevailing political wind. People are not too bright, but can sense an inauthentic hack. If you were to ask me Hillary's view on the war, I'd say I have little idea. She supported it at the onset, claims she'll withdraw troops, but continues to back funding and says she'll keep some troops. The same goes with Romney on abortion, gay rights, and a number of other issues.

Then again, being from the northeast might hurt them. I don't know.

But I'm sure a Hillary v. Romney race would have mediocre turnout - and an independent candidate would likely do fairly well.

3. hopefully, it's not those two

if it is, a Bloomberg run would suddenly be viewed in a different light.
