A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 27 percent of voters think Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would be doing a better job as president, while 49 percent say she would be performing about the same. Thats about 70 percent that say a hypothetical President Hillary would be doing as well or better than President Barack Obama.
Meanwhile, just 14 percent of U.S. voters say Hillary Clinton would be doing a worse job as president than Obama if she had won last years Democratic presidential nomination.

He's a disaster & she would be too. There is so much being uncovered about the slimey things the Clinton White House did.
People like these two should be kept as far away from the White House as possible!!

I know where that poll was taken.
They voted for her because that was the only 2 options.
And most of the comments were
NEITHER

70% Say 'President Hillary' Better Than Obama
Any one of my three cats would be a better president. I'm 100% certain about that. How do I know that? Well, none of my cats would be doing anything to cause the harm that Obama is causing right now.
But, why are people even considering a stupid hypothetical anyway? It's not going to make any difference. If Hillary had been the president, people might be asking the opposite question about whether Obama would've been a better president than Hillary. Heck, why not go all out and ask the same question with McCain as the president vs Obama or Palin as the president vs Obama?
But, none of it matters. Except perhaps to Hillary, who would be become a certain candidate again in 2012 if it turned out that Obama might call it quits because the great majority of the people, including liberals, became too disgusted with him to want him for another term.

I disagree. She has already had her hand smacked when she tried Hillarycare in 1994. Hillary would have been smarter and attempted to move the country only a little more socialist. Obama’s heavy handed tactics on everything he touches got on the people’s nerves very quickly.

I was waiting for that. Yes even Biden. He may be a bungler’s bungler. But he does not adhere to an agenda to “transform” America based upon a leftist ideology. So, yes, even Biden would be better than 0Bama.

I will never regret having taken the only opportunity I will likely ever have to vote against Hillary Clinton. I would have voted for Vladimir Putin had he been running against her, and will do so in the future if the opportunity arises. ABH.

Jimmy Carter
He was and is worse than Obama. I was seven years old and will never forgive him for making me sit in a car waiting on getting gas that my father was getting. He sucked so bad that it makes Obama look great. I guess you forgot about the hostages. The high inflation. etc.

Hillery better than Obama? Well she would have self righteous tirades and would in the end be less of a nationalist socialist, but she is pretty much cut from the same cloth as Obama, or else she would have battled Obama and his thugs at the Dem Convention in 2008.
Hillery rolled over for Obama.And many of her supporters abandon her because of it.
I prefer to say better the devil you know than the one you do not.Obama is much more disposable than Hillery. That is a very good thing.

I agree. I dont think we would be dealing with this healthcare crap if she had one. She wouldnt make the same mistake twice.

That's not really a rousing endorsement of Mrs. Clinton. After all, just about anyone would be better than obama. The list of people who would be as bad or worse than obama is pretty darn short: Osama Bin Laden, Kim Jong Ill, Ahmadinejad, pelosi, or anyone from ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, or code pink.
Seriously though, that's an interesting thought. I'll bet you couldn't find oh, lets be generous and say 1 million US Citizens that would be worse than obama. Out of a pool of some 300 million, that means we've managed to put someone in the bottom 0.3% into office. Good job all you fools that voted for him. Honestly though, I'd bet you'd have a hard time finding a million people that could be doing worse than obama right now.

Thats about 70 percent that say a hypothetical President Hillary would be doing as well or better than President Barack Obama.I'm bad at math. Please someone tell me how they reached the 70% number...

Not only that, but the logic is a little lacking. If 49 say she’d be about the same, and 27 say she’d be better, then 24 say she’d be worse. The headline could as easily say that 73 percent say that Hillary would be worse.

I guess for News Max ‘about the same as’ is equal to ‘better than’, which I agree with you, could also mean equal to ‘worse than’.
