Kerry Is Not Well-Liked By The Public

Senator John Kerry has been considering here lately that he might make another run for president. If recent polling figures are correct, he should probably forget about being president, and just make the best of his Senate position.

The Quinnipiac University Polling Institute recently conducted a poll of 1,623 registered voters. They asked these voters to rate a group of politicians on a scale of 0 to 100. The higher the number, the more the candidate is liked by the voters.

The bad news for Kerry is that he finished dead last in the poll. That means he is the least likeable of all the politicians rated, including George Bush. Peter Brown, assistant director of the Q.U. Polling Institute, said, "This is bad bad news for Kerry. Americans know who he is, and have pretty much decided they don't like him."

Here are the results of the Quinnipiac University polling:

Rudolph Giuliani..........64.2
Barack Obama..........58.8
John McCain..........57.7
Condoleezza Rice..........56.1
Bill Clinton..........55.8
Joe Lieberman..........52.7
Michael Bloomberg..........51.1

Al Gore..........44.9
George Bush..........43.8
Evan Bayh..........43.3
