Nice Guys Can't Both Finish Last

Hillary may have high negatives, but the public seems to like both Barack Obama and John McCain. Yet, after watching them talk to friendly interviewers, it strikes me that neither will wear well once once the campaigning starts for the general election. (This might just be a personal reaction, of course. I'm especially bothered by their economic populism, which actually plays well with quite a few Americans.) So if it comes down to those two, the winner may be the one who ends up being least annoying in the long haul.

By the way, both Obama and McCain have come out against negative campaigning. Who will break that promise first, and who will break it the most? At least if Hillary runs, she'll openly attack her opponents without apology.
