Politicians Should Pay Heed to Productivity Problem

According to a new poll from Quinnipiac, Clinton is being creamed by the three top Republican candidates everywhere it counts.

Republican contenders Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush and Scott Walker are beating Clinton and Bernie Sanders at the numbers game. (The poll also included two other swing states: Iowa and Colorado.).

Clinton is not the only candidate with problems in the three states: Independent Vermont Sen.

The poll didn’t just have bad news for Clinton, but also for upstart Republican candidate Donald Trump.

With a nine-point advantage, Scott Walker has the biggest lead in poll in Colorado over Clinton, leading 47 percent to 38 percent. A CNN/ORC poll indicated that 57 percent of adults said she was not honest or trustworthy, compared to 42 percent who asserted that she was.

In May, Sanders trailed Clinton by 45 percent.

Former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush talked about how they will handle the 2016 US presidential race which could pit Clinton’s wife against his successor’s brother, in a rare joint interview with Time magazine.

The survey has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.8 percentage points.

Still, the poll did show that a portion of Clinton’s current supporters aren’t very enthusiastic about her candidacy.

Hillary did take a bunch of questions on Facebook, which is good, but you just don’t get the feeling that she’s plunging into things with voters and with journalists-and that carries the dreaded whiff of inevitability. However, if she lost all three, the Republican nominee would only need to pick up additional electoral votes to prevail, which could be accomplished by winning Florida and either Wisconsin or Ohio.

Before Donald Trump was a front-running Republican presidential candidate, the real estate mogul believed that the nation’s economy ran better when Democrats were in control and that Hillary Clinton would be a strong negotiator with foreign nations. Both Walker and Rubio have positive favorability ratings.

In head-to-head matchups in Virginia, the poll shows Clinton losing to Rubio (43 to 41 percent), Bush (42 to 39 percent), and Walker (43 to 40 percent). No, they do not, ‘ he said.

Clinton was viewed very unfavorably in the Colorado survey, with 35 percent viewing her favorably and 56 percent viewing her unfavorably. Doors will open at 12:30 p.m.

Skelley says polls this far out do not mean much for other reason too: shifts in the economy, or a few kind of crisis could affect the public’s opinion of any candidate.
