 Hillary's Rude Awakening
By Carrie LukasThe Clinton campaign narrative was supposed to go something like this: Senator Clinton’s commanding lead in the polls would persist throughout 2007. January would kick off with a solid win in Iowa, followed by a blowout in New Hampshire. The race effectively would be settled by mid-January, leaving the rest of the primary season to serve as a coronation, allowing Clinton to position herself for the general campaign.

Zogby International released a poll in November showing Clinton and Senator Barack Obama tied among men, but Clinton enjoyed a staggering 18 point lead among women, giving her a total 11 point advantage nationally.
