No Clintonian Dynasty
Reader comment on: In Polls, Clinton Loses to Republicans

Submitted by Bill Isenberger, Jun 19, 2007 09:40

Although Ms. Clinton has the best political machine of all the Democratic candidates running, this will only get her the Demo nomination. However, she does not have the commincation skills of her husband. She sounds shrill and far too obviously calculating that in 2008 most voters will not fall for as they have in the past.

Not that the Republicans aren't offering anything better, mind you. A rather sad indictment on the quality of candidates both sides are foisting upon us.
