Polls: Hillary Trailing in Iowa, Sucking Wind on Trustworthiness…Among Democrats – Guy Benson
Remember that kid who told Hillary face-to-face that many young voters find her dishonest? It seems as though he speaks for quite a lot of voters within her own party. A new Washington Post/ABC News poll of Democrats shows her lagging behind Bernie Sanders by double digits in the honesty department, perhaps suggesting that cynical, mendacious performances like this aren’t helping: Clinton’s single greatest vulnerability has worsened in this poll, produced for ABC by Langer Research Associates: Sanders now leads by 12 points, 48-36 percent, in being seen as more honest and trustworthy, vs. 6 points last month and an even split in October. Should Clinton emerge as the nominee, it’s an issue the Republican candidate likely will repeat at every chance. Further, the candidates are virtually even, 47-43 percent, Clinton-Sanders, on who “is closer to you on the issues,” down from a 17-point Clinton lead just last month. And it’s close (Clinton +7) on who’d do a better job “bringing needed change to Washington.”
