Too late to do Hillary much good. But she now has a higher job approval rating than the Prez. Dana Milbank explains:
It’s about two years too late, but Hillary Clinton has finally pulled ahead of Barack Obama.
By any measure — favorability ratings or job approval — Americans by a sizable margin have warmer views of the secretary of state than they do of the president. This is of little use to Clinton beyond bragging rights, but among Hillary ’08 fans there is some satisfaction that the woman Obama once cut down as “likable enough” is now more liked than he is. Depending on the measure and the poll, she leads him by roughly 10 to 25 percentage points.
Of course, there’s always 2012!
