2. Barely in That Snapshot...

... but doing well in the poll referenced in the OP:

"A new ABC News/Washington Post poll found three-fourths of respondents felt Edwards and Barack Obama answer questions honestly, while just 50 percent believe Clinton does. Nearly as many -- 45 percent -- said they did not believe the former first lady is candid."

3. I have never seen her be candid outside of the "vast right-wing conspiracy" interview.

6. If She Was Being Candid in the LOGO Interview...

... my household and extended family was disappointed.

The interview she gave, with embedded video clips: http://visiblevote08.logoonline.com/2007/08/10/video-hillary-clinton-rewind/

4. I couldn't find that poll at that link .. just a screen full of faces, with an ad

at bottom enticing me to "sign up" to get regular "Google Alerts" sent to my email, including
the poll results I went there to find.. how tacky.

did anyone else get through directly to the poll, or is it just some flook of my computer?

7. Thanks, I finally found it, but it wasn't easy.

but thanks for the encouragement to fish around, I finally found the picture that produced the poll
on "trustworthiness" I was curious about, that was referenced in the OP.. thanks again.
