President Barack Obama says voters want a "new car smell" in the 2016 White House race and that Hillary Rodham Clinton would be "a great president."
But would Clinton pass that particular smell test?
In a nationally televised interview broadcast Sunday, Obama seemed to suggest that any Democrat other than him would provide the turn of the page that he says voters are interested in. He acknowledged the "dings" to his own political standing during nearly six years of sometimes bruising battles with Congress and said Americans will want something new.
"They want to drive something off the lot that doesn't have as much mileage as me," Obama said.
But if she does run -- which she is considering, with a decision expected to be announced early next year -- would she have that "new car" scent for voters?
New car smell or not, Democratic voters hold her in such high regard that she outdistances anyone else in polling of possible Democratic candidates for 2016. One of them is Vice President Joe Biden, who has not ruled out a third run for the White House.
The 2016 presidential race could feature a repeat face-off between a Clinton and a member of another leading American political family: former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who is considering entering the 2016 race. His father and brother both were elected president. In the AP-GfK survey, Jeb Bush was most popular among potential 2016 GOP presidential candidates, with 56 percent of Republicans viewing him favorably.

Thanks for putting for making me wonder what Hillary smells like. Blech.
Well, they DID buy a hooptie in 2008 and 2012 because they liked the color and the sound system.
“new car smell” ,OMG where does Obama come up with these Stupid lines
A very strange statement.
Ok, going with the new car smell analogy, that would seem to eliminate Hillary. Hillary has been a political fixture for decades. Hardly a new car. Hillary’s definitely got the used car smell, to go with the smell test.........
I would to find out how Cankles smell let alone President Obola. I may need a gas mask for those two.
There’s nothing new about PIAPS.
As for how she smells — I don’t what to think about it.
Even that New-Car smell won’t remove the Liberal Stench of the last 8 years!
Obama proving once again that he can lie better than any old Clinton, and that a sucker is born every minute.
PT Barnum would stand back in wonder at Obama.
Clinton is an old wreck. She is a member of an elitist dynasty that is one of the reasons old Detroit looks the way it does.
A new car would have been any of the tea party members. THAT would have woken them up with a ride around the block.
High mileage, needs some body work, has a noise in the read end..................
“.......voters want a “new car smell”.
Damn right we do! The odumbo’s have stunk the place up enough and its time to be rid of every one of odumbos appointees in government and fumigate the entire place.
When you leave garbage around too long, things begin to smell pretty bad and we all know what garbage they are.
Finally, he tells the truth.
na, Obama isn’t a good liar. The vast majority saw through his schick pretty quickly, where with Clinton.. people STILL believe him!. Obama’s poll numbers would be in the TEENS if he wasn’t still getting 95% approval numbers from racist blacks!
Nothing quite like the new cowboy boot leather smell while CRUZing in our new car .
Hillary... looks like she was ridden hard and put away wet... not exactly the “new car” smell America will be seeking in 2016 if you ask me :)
Hillary is a Trabant.
so Obama is talking about Elizabeth Warren ?
