I averaged the ratings for presidents who were governors (20.17%) and presidents who were senators (26.625%). All of our biggest stinkers were senators, including the guy who so loved the sound of his own voice that he gave an hours long inauguration speech, caught pneumonia, and died a month later.

FDR and Clinton are considered very successful by most standards. Clinton had a 66% approval rating when he left office, he currently stands at 60% approve 32% disapprove and 8% undecided. It would be a very different race if he were running instead of his wife! FDR was ranked this year by the American Political Science Association as our 3rd greatest president, Clinton was ranked our 8th.

You are on a Conservative, Tea-Party website. Success, to a conservative, isn't measured by opinion polls. Success, to a conservative, is measured by fidelity to conservative principles, and the ability to communicate those principles. Anything else is just so much fluff and is meaningless to this conversation on a conservative website.

You may have gotten lost!
