Clinton machine stumbles
Dick Morris: Women are leaving Hillary
By Dick Morris – 01/12/16 05:52 PM EST
All polls are now pointing in the same direction: Hillary Clinton is tanking.
The most recent Fox News poll, taken after the new year began, shows her losing to Ted Cruz, 50 percent to 43 percent; to Marco Rubio, 50 percent to 41 percent; and even to Donald Trump, 47 percent to 43 percent. The latest Democratic primary poll, by Investor’s Business Daily, shows the former secretary of State nursing only a 4-point lead over Bernie Sanders, 43 percent to 39 percent. The RealClearPolitics average of New Hampshire polls has Sanders ahead by 6 points — and in Iowa, the candidates are tied in the RCP average, which Clinton led for months.
Beneath the overall head-to-head data, the internals of the polling show a sharp erosion of support for Clinton among women and very little change among male voters.
Among women, she has lost her lead over Cruz, falling from 13 points ahead in a Fox News poll on Dec. 17 to 3 points behind in Fox’s Jan. 7 survey. Among men, she moved from 15 points behind Cruz in December to 14 points back in January.
So while Clinton has lost 16 points among women against Cruz, she is essentially unchanged among men.
The Fox News poll had similar findings for a match-up between Clinton and Rubio. And against Trump, she went from beating The Donald among women by 26 points in December to only 12 points in January.
So why are women leaving Hillary? Bill.

One can only hope… what a horrible candidate (and probably a horrible person as well)
I think we all have to accept that all politicians bend the truth and cherry-pick facts to suit their positions. The reality is that you probably couldn’t exist as a successful politician unless you did. The problem with Hillary is that she goes well beyond that acceptable line. People are also extremely good at detecting bullshit, and her bullshit is off the charts. I firmly believe that a large portion of the Democrat faithful will vote for her no matter what, because she will most likely be that Party’s candidate. No matter how much her people try to fix her personality, she simply cannot help but come across as a horrible person.
529… so-o-o-o correct on your part… her spouse could sell an icebox to an eskimo and people just loved him (apologies for being so un-pc)… she is just so phony, disingenuous and the ultimate sins, unlikeable and unrelatable… compounded with the shrill DRC chairperson implementing a scorched earth policy to get her on the November ballot… AWFUL
Paul Aronsohn, could give Hillary a good run for her money when it comes to cherry-pick facts to suit their positions.
Don’t know what the mayor has to do with this but it’s folks like you that may help her win.
the Clinton Machine may have seen its day
Good God I hope so!
Well Paul Smith I may have just changed my opinion of you after you last comment. Disregard my last posts Anonymous
Have we learned nothing?
.
All of the effort in 2008 to stop Hillary just resulted in the election of an even farther left politician who has run roughshod over the country and the constitution.
.
So again in 1016 a concerted effort to knock off Hillary… so a card carrying Socialist can be elected president (or good ole likable dim-witted Joe will step in and win)
.
Better to let her become the (damaged, unlikable) Democrat nominee so she can lose to the Republican (even Trump is better than anything the Democrats are offering)
I don’t think, with a population of 300 million plus, that we need dynastic politics dominated by 2 families… there has to be better qualified candidates out there and I think the reaction to populists (Trump and Sanders) shows many people are fed up with big money politics as well.
Can you imagine what working for Hillary must be like? Talk about the ultimate in Horrible Bosses.
What a. Pathetic state of affairs…. “Democrat faithful will vote for her no matter what”?????? Could they be that pathetically stupid? Like lemmings to the cliff? Fu@&$ng MORONS.? Is that where we are today?
948… there are a large number of registered democrats that find her as abhorrent as the population at large…. you wouldn’t see the “Bern” effect if she had a clear path for a coronation… She is having problems appealing to her own supposed base… the elite that think that the democratic faithful will vote for her no matter what are the ones still scratching their heads wondering why insurgents like Trump, Carson, Sanders and Cruz (yuk) have gained traction.
