		<description>Holly, I think I am going to have back you up and come to your defense on this one…… (LK) look at it this way.....


I sure hope my web site does not sound like Hillary Clinton, with a near 50% disapproval rating right off. But what is your bounce rate on your website, is it around 50% also? Imagine if half of your customers left before they even looked into your website. Only the hard core customers/followers are staying at your site and buying... 

Anything I can do I greatly improve my over all bounce rate, is bound to increase sales since more people are looking over my web site. That is what I am trying to improve on now, my bounce rate. 

I think the lesson is, we all can learn more and do better. I can improve my bounce rate by improving my tone and Hillary can improve communicating her political message to others.</description>

		<description>Holly,

I agree with you. People that know Hillary personally have told me she&#039;s whip smart, caring and funny.  The &quot;whip smart&quot; has always pretty much come across - caring and funny, not so much.

And, here&#039;s another positive cue from Hillary - she keeps going, despite all the godawful crap her enemies throw at her and her family.  

In any event, I think 2008 just got a lot more interesting!

(There&#039;s also a marketing lesson in the NH primaries.  Customers - like voters - have minds of their own, and surveys often don&#039;t work, since people tell you what they think you want to hear, or even lie, or change their minds at the last minute in their decision.)</description>

		<description>LK,

I&#039;m sorry if you took this as a slam against Hillary.  I actually meant the opposite.  I think letting people see the real Hillary will be a big plus for her.  (Just look at last night&#039;s results).  

I believe her old &quot;voice&quot; came across as too stiff.  There are two factors in politics - the message, and how the message is delivered.  I believe her message will be stronger with her new delivery style.

I want to encourage websites to do the same thing.  Lots of websites have real value to offer to customers, but the copy/language/voice they deliver it in isn&#039;t persuasive.   They can take a cue from Hillary here - a positive cue.</description>

		<description>This was an unnecessary slam toward anyone who is qualified to lead our country.  All who are attempting to attain this country&#039;s highest office are qualified whether you like it or not.  TMI to your psyche, obviously. Shame on you.  Americans need no more negative thoughts, thank you.</description>
