I disagree, Look where Hillary had to go. Bill's popularity came from his views and his lifestyle. He was a generally likable guy. He was able to pull the south,
I think Bill's presidency allowed Hillary to gain some popularity with the Left, but not with the right, and not with the moderates. Bill Clinton can't be President again, and I think that will made clear during the campaign by both sides. The dems in the primary will bring that up over and over again, that it isn't her Husband that is being elected. > -----Original Message----- > From: G Money [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2007 8:58 AM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: Richardson declares! > > Do you guys think it's an oversimplification to say that Hillary's > popularity is owed primarily to her last name?
