While most girls just want to have fun, Hillary Clinton just wants to be liked. The Democratic candidate for the primary election is turning on the softer side of Hillary as the January 3rd start of the primary election season approaches. Looking to portray herself as less the hardened politician, she is seeking to let people see the human side of the former first lady.
Her unfavorable rating of 50 percent in some polls has spurred her into action of becoming more likeable. She brought her mother and daughter onto the campaign trail in Iowa to show she is human and another New York mother will be traveling to Iowa for a couple of days of campaigning. The message will be that Clinton was willing to talk to her like a mother when she was questioning issues of health care for her sick daughter.
Her position in many of the polls has fallen recently, according to number published by usaelectionpolls.com as Barack Obama has surged into the lead in Iowa with 33 percent of expected voters to Clinton's 25 percent. Her campaign sees the likeability index as part of the problem in lower poll numbers.
However, in one-on-one polls at PresidentElectionPolls.com when up against the top Republican primary candidates, Clinton continues to show that among national voters she will beat the Republicans, if the elections were held today. With many celebrities now coming forward and a flurry of endorsements from major newspapers, the closer the primary date gets, the more the candidates are pressing to reach more people.
