6 out of 10 find Hillary dishonest

<snip>
Last month, a Washington Post-ABC News poll found that nearly six in 10 Americans believe Clinton is not “honest and trustworthy.
</snip>

In summary, a MAJORITY of Americans find her dishonest. This means she is unelectable.

7. I believe you're thinking of the Washington Times?

Edited on Thu May-22-08 08:46 AM by Spider Jerusalem

The Washington Post is one of the more reputable newspapers in the country (Woodward and Bernstein ring any bells?), and the fact that 60+% of respondents in several consecutive polls find her basically dishonest and untrustworthy is a problem; any candidate perceived to have that sort of character flaw by that percentage of the electorate is generally unelectable.

10. Like the 25 to 30 percent that still think Bush is doing a good job

You have to wonder what the other 40% is thinking.

11. A Funny Thing About Exit-Polling Data

I've seen it time and time again on CNN's site:

People who think both candidates are honest and trustworthy tend to lean towards Clinton, as do people who think neither is.
