Which candidate do American's despise more?
Its a dead heat!
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...llary-clinton/
But if you look just at registered voters, the new poll actually shows Clinton's image is about as bad as Trump's, with 38 percent having a favorable impression and 59 percent unfavorable, compared to a 37/60 split for Trump.
I hope my polling place gives out clothes pins, so I can put one over my nose.

I can see where the Republicans are proud of Clinton's low approval ratings. It is the result of years and years of effort. When it comes to his disapproval ratings, however, Trump is a self made man.

It must be true I saw it on TV and they wouldn't lie to me. Would they?

This is exactly what I have been thinking.
I had a man recently yell at me that "They've had about a dozen hearings against that murdering bitch!".
But, have "they" actually proven anything?
Where are the convictions?
And, when I consider who "they" is. It's the Republican Party. Gee, I wonder what their motivation could possibly be?
I don't care how many kangaroo court "hearings" you hold, until you actually prove something you have nothing. The number of hearings held doesn't establish guilt, it only proves the determination of a politically motivated organization.

There's no question that the Clintons are skilled at being in and around the fire, but only managing to get a little scorched now and then.

What fire? Benghazi? Vince Foster? More often than not, where there's smoke around the Clintons there's one of Richard Mellon Scaife's trolls with a smoke machine. Guess who bankrolled Judicial Watch?

Such ethical entanglements seem to have dogged Ms. Clinton on a rather consistent basis — whether it's taking large speaking fees from Wall Street banks or using a private email server (and then struggling to explain the nature of that email) while serving as President Barack Obama's top foreign policy adviser. None have produced the proverbial "smoking gun," a clear case of quid pro quo (or an offense worthy of prosecution), but enough of them have stacked up to raise serious questions about her judgment.
To put it another way, in the Clinton's world, where expediency is confronted by ethical boundaries, expediency wins (particularly when expediency favors a Clinton).

Mostly true, but Hillary has certainly provided them some ammo, particularly on the email and Clinton Foundation fronts. That said, at least she's qualified to be President, unlike der Trumpenfuhrer.

Within the typical margin of error, nothing has changed. So why is this so significant now?
With a Hillary presidency, a clothespin will suffice. With a Trump presidency, mass migration to Canada and Mexico?

I'm still not voting for the Ochre Hobgoblin.
