New Poll Shows Americans Are Sweet for Hillary Clinton (Valentines Day)
Obama Trails Behind in Close Second While Capturing the Most Republican Support this Valentine's Day

VIENNA, Va., Jan. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton will be showered with sweet support this Valentine's Day holiday, according to the National Confectioners Association's (NCA) latest poll. Among all candidates, Clinton won the most hearts with the majority of respondents, 18 percent, voting that they would most like to give her their support by giving her a box of chocolates this presidential campaign. Also reaping rewards of sweet returns, Democrats Barack Obama (14 percent) and John Edwards (6 percent) and Republican John McCain (5 percent) pulled through as strong contenders.

"On Valentine's Day, the tradition of giving chocolate is a timeless symbol of affection. What better way to support candidates during February -- especially on Super Tuesday -- than with a classic box of chocolates," said Larry Graham, President of the National Confectioners Association. "Regardless of party affiliation, the giving and receiving of chocolate is a classic way to show your love for friends and family at Valentine's Day."

1. Hillary will need a big box of chocolates
to make her feel better after failing to pull ahead of Obama on Super Tuesday.

But please don't leave Bill alone in a room with all the chocolates! ;-)

2. Sugar is a perfect analogy for Hillary...
Hillary is totally the "Confection Candidate".

If you're hungry--sometimes you just want to grab what sounds good.

You know chocolate. It's been around for a while, and you trust
the familiarity of this sugary treat.

However, after taking the bait--you often regret it--and
wish that you had selected something more substantial.

Sugar gives you a temporary high, that usually results in a very disappointing
crash.
