Default Re: Hillary\'s poll numbers tanking...

Recent poll shows her trailing head to head against all 5 top republican possibilities.

Note that the Zogby poll showing Hillary losing to all GOP challengers is an internet poll that does not use what would generally be accepted as a random sample. All the most recent telephone polls (including a new Gallup poll released the same day as this one) show Hillary slightly ahead of the GOP candidates.

Zogby has been experimenting with internet poll methods for the past couple of cycles. Thus far, they have performed very poorly. That's not to say that internet polling is futile. There is a lot of research current being conducted on internet survey methodology. But it's not there yet.
