Fifty percent of adults would not vote for Clinton
March 27, 2007

Half of voting-age Americans say they would not vote for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) if she became the Democratic nominee for president in 2008, according to a Harris Interactive poll released Tuesday.

More than one in five Democrats that participated in the survey said they would not vote for Clinton. Overall, 36 percent say they would vote for the former first lady and 11 percent are unsure of their top choice.

Forty-eight percent of Independent voters also said that they would choose another candidate over Clinton, the poll, which surveyed 2,223 potential voters, states.

Fifty-six percent of men said that they would not vote for Clinton, while 45 percent of women said that she would not be their pick. In addition, 69 percent of those 62 and older said that they would not vote for Clinton.

Nearly half of the respondents said that they dislike Clinton’s political opinions and Clinton as a person. Fifty-two percent of people also said that “she does not appear to connect with people on a personal level.”

John Edwards Tells Hollywood All Candidates and Wifes Called—Except Bill and Hillary Clinton

edwards3.jpg At a Hollywood fundraiser Friday night, John Edwards told donors that he and wife Elizabeth heard personally from every candidate and their spouse after their press conference -- except the Clintons. "He said Hillary and Bill didn't call but all the others did with messages of support. He repeated the story to each table," an attendee told me. I'm told that a member of Hillary Clinton's team sent an email afterwards to at least one politico "claiming her staff had been repeatedly trying to make calls to the Edwards but hadn't gotten through." So the politico emailed back the Edwards' home phone number.
