Chuck Todd, the host of “Meet the Press,” reacting to a new Quinnipiac poll showing Democratic Party frontrunner Hillary Clinton seriously underwater in her favorable ratings, made a damning statement about the former secretary of state.
Todd said, “This fits another pattern of hers. Whenever she’s been out front as the face of the Democratic Party, her numbers have gone down. They always have, whenever she is the focal point.”
Clinton has a 23 point deficit in her favorable/unfavorable rating in Iowa, with 33 percent of voters having a favorable view of the former Secretary of State and 56 percent viewing her unfavorably.
In the swing state of Virginia it’s 41 percent favorable, 50 percent unfavorable.
In Colorado, Hillary is viewed favorably by only 35 percent of voters, while 56 percent have a negative view of her.
“If it wasn’t for Donald Trump, the biggest story of the summer would be Hillary Clinton’s problem solidifying herself inside the Democratic Party,” according to Todd. “It would be the Bernie Sanders boomlet.”
