Benghazi: What difference does it make to Hillary Clinton?

Font Size:

Quite a bit, if the polls are to be believed. And as we learned during Election 2012, the polls are always right.

In a new Quinnipiac survey, Hillary Clinton’s favorability ratings have taken a steep nosedive in just a few months. Back in February, the former Secretary of State and likely 2016 presidential contender sat at a comfortable 61% -34% favorable/unfavorable rating. Today that has dropped to 52% – 40%. It is fairly obvious that despite the media’s best efforts to protect her, the scandal surrounding Benghazi is finally taking the toll it should…

The media is desperate to salvage Obama’s second-term agenda, even if that means swallowing hard the taste of knowing Obama’s violations of civil liberties make the dreaded George W. Bush look like a pony-tailed hippie ACLU lawyer.

But the media is also desperate to save Hillary Clinton, for they see her as the best chance to keep the GOP out of the White House in 2016…

This is why, for almost a year now, despite four dead bodies, we have been told again and again that Hillary is the Best Secretary of State in the History of Secretary of State-dom.

Ambassador Christopher Stevens could not be reached for comment.

The best this administration can hope for is that all their other scandals could still distract from this one. Spying on journalists and intimidating Tea Partiers with IRS audits and the rest of it, maybe that will keep people from demanding real answers about a United States ambassador and three other brave Americans being murdered by Islamic terrorists due to Hillary and Barry’s incompetence. Maybe that will keep people from marching unimpeded through the fog of lies these tyrants emit instinctively.

Not if I can help it. How about you?

Update: Hillary Clinton about to join Twitter. Well, good. She’ll be at @HillaryClinton, reportedly. I think we should give her a nice warm welcome.
