Need another reason NOT to support Hillary? Here you go.

Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton trails five top Republican presidential contenders in general election match-ups, a drop in support from this summer, according to a poll released Monday.

Clinton's top Democratic rivals, Barack Obama and John Edwards, still lead Republicans in hypothetical match-ups ahead of the Nov. 4, 2008, presidential election, the survey by Zogby Interactive showed.

Clinton, a New York senator who has been at the top of the Democratic pack in national polls in the 2008 race, trails Republican candidates Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, Fred Thompson, John McCain and Mike Huckabee by three to five percentage points in the direct matches.

Yeah I know that the polls are all over the place on this issue. I just heard the Clinton campaign crowing about another poll showing that she COULD beat the Republicans.

But the question we should all be asking ourselves is WHY the Republicans started declaring Hillary the guaranteed nominee almost two years ago. What did they know back then? And why would they want her to be their opponent in 2008?

Remember that we only ever see the tip of these political icebergs. And what we DON'T know CAN hurt us!

Is it that they know they can beat her? Or that she will not allow a criminal investigation into the crimes of George W. Bush? Either way their endorsement makes her radioactive in my book.
