Clinton’s Attacks Yield Gains — on the Unfavorable Scale

It looks like the righteous indignation, rancor, pique, and vitriol (but not bitterness) that alienated voters had toward Barack Obama after he said they were bitter is subsiding. Instead, Hillary Clinton is getting on their nerves.

Rasmussen’s Daily Poll (which I refer to often because as the name says, it’s daily) shows HRC’s unfavorability numbers taking a 3-point jump yesterday, to 54%. Obama’s slid a notch to 49% making it even with the number of people who say they view him favorably. Clinton’s favorability ranking dipped to 43%.

John McCain’s numbers also slid a bit yesterday. His favorabiilty went down a point from the previous day, to 53%, while he was rated unfavorably by 45% of those asked, a gain of two points over Monday.

Looks like this whole “Obama is an elitist” thing isn’t really working for HRC and McSame. Maybe they should hold hands again and find another bandwagon to jump on together.

    Was Hillary Fired for Unethical Misconduct?
    .
    The links below say that her boss in the Watergate investigation fired her, refused to give her a letter of recommendation and said she was a liar who did highly unethical things.
    .
    I have not seen these statements elsewhere.
    .
    Supposedly, her boss says that she conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality, that she was an unethical and dishonest lawyer; that he should have reported her to the bar association for disciplinary action; that she wrote a fraudulent legal memorandum which if submitted to a judge would have gotten her disbarred; and that he could not recommend her for any subsequent position of public or private trust.
