A new Quinnipiac poll in New York finds Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), who is running for president, with a lowly 29% approval rating in her home state.

While some people are attending her rallies, I think that it's more out of curiosity and being able to say that they were there if she became the nominee instead of committing to vote for her.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

The internals of the numbers would be interesting to know. Why are people unhappy with her (assuming that is true).

getting rid of them everywhere. But she has never been an Obama scale Senator.

But, howdy, would I love to see her running the Defense Department. There are many mysogonists there that need to be retired.

she was running for re election and here she is running for pres. I agree that it will eventually fade away and go back up.
