To what other circumstance would you attribute the fact that she continues to stay with a man who cheats on her at every chance he gets and who does not recognize the value of truthfulness? I call her a head case. JLA

Agee that she will win. But she also has a severe mental problem.

Wrong. Hillary will lose. The more they get to know her, the more they dislike her - New Yorkers are rejecting Hillary as she becomes better known: Support for First Lady wanes, Siena poll finds By LARA JAKES, Capitol bureau First published: Wednesday, July 7, 1999 Albany -- Giuliani is supported by 49% and Clinton by 40% of those questioned Hillary Rodham Clinton's potential candidacy for the U.S. Senate now has less support from New Yorkers than it had four months ago, according to an upstate poll released Tuesday. A matchup between the First Lady and New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani would see the Republican favorite prevail with 49 percent of the vote, and the First Lady trailing with 40 percent, according to a poll commissioned by the Siena Research Institute in Loudonville. That's a turnabout from a similar survey in March, when Clinton outpolled Giuliani by 45 percent to 41 percent, said Thomas Kelly, the institute's co-director. Clinton's "status as First Lady brings with it a two-edged sword,'' Kelly said Tuesday. "It guarantees her high visibility and name recognition, but it also lends credence to charges of her abusing her position and being a carpetbagger.'' "In the end, it will depend on how well she wears on New Yorkers and her ability to sell her currently unknown political positions throughout the state's many diverse regions,'' Kelly said. Clinton, who officially formed her exploratory committee Tuesday when she filed notification papers in Washington, will kick off a four-day "listening tour'' upstate today to meet with residents. She will meet this morning with Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, whose Senate seat she will seek. She will cap off her tour Friday and Saturday in Albany. The Siena poll, which surveyed 713 New York residents, indicates Clinton is losing support upstate and in the metropolitan suburbs. Only 35 percent of those polled in those areas indicated they would vote for Clinton, compared to 42 percent in March. She is favored in New York City, a Democratic stronghold, by 55 percent to 36 percent over Giuliani. But that is down from a 57 percent to 29 percent margin in the city that Clinton held over the two-term mayor in March, the poll showed. Another survey released last week by Quinnipiac Polling Institute showed Clinton with a two-point edge over Giuliani: a statistical dead heat of 46 percent to 44 percent. And yet another, commissioned by Zogby International, showed Giuliani with a comfortable lead over Clinton, 50-40 percent. timesunion.com.
