Clinton wins big in two key qualities: "experience" and "cares about people"
CNN: January 8, 2008
Schneider: Clinton wins big in two key qualities

(CNN) — Like Iowa Democrats before them, more than half of Democratic voters in New Hampshire ranked "change" as the most important quality they were looking for in a candidate, according to CNN exit polls. Barack Obama beat Hillary Clinton by 26 percentage points in that category.

But Clinton easily bested Obama among voters who ranked two key qualities most important: "experience" (by an enormous 65 percentage points) and "cares about people" (by a 21-point margin).

John Edwards won the "cares about people" category in Iowa, but the former North Carolina senator was much less of a factor in New Hampshire, and Clinton seems to be the clear beneficiary of that. It will be interesting to if Edwards has a similar effect on the race in the upcoming states.

3. "Sincerity is vital; if you can fake that, you've got it made"...
Hillary "cares about people," all right...if "people" are the CEOs of big corporations. :puke:
