Poll: 100% of GOPers support Hillary's decision to run _________________________________________________________ Republican reaction ranges from ecstatic to euphoric By Andy Borowitz Just days after announcing her candidacy for president, Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-New York)'s decision to run for her party's nomination has picked up support in an unlikely place, with a new poll showing that an overwhelming 100% of Republicans favor her decision to run. The poll, conducted by the University of Minnesota's Opinion Research Institute, shows that while only 41% of Democrats support Sen. Clinton's decision to run, a full 100% of Republicans identify themselves as either "ecstatic" or "euphoric" about her decision. "Over the weekend, Sen. Clinton announced to the country, 'I'm in,'" said Rockwell Pritchard of the Opinion Research Institute. "And Republican voters seem to have responded, 'We're stoked.'" Sen. Clinton's poll numbers are in stark contract with the level of G.O.P. support for Sen. Barack Obama (D-Illinois)'s decision to run for president, which stands at zero percent. When asked what they did when they found out that Sen. Clinton had announced her candidacy, 51% of Republicans responded "cracked open some champagne" while 49% answered "danced a jig." But despite the overwhelming poll numbers, support among Republicans for Sen. Clinton's decision to run faces a threat from one possible X-factor: Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass). According to the poll, 100% of Republican voters agree with the statement "If John Kerry decided to run again I would be even more stoked than I am about Hillary deciding to run — and I am already really stoked about her running." jewishworldreview.com
