Bill Clinton An Asset To Hillary Clinton’s Campaign

Somebody tell Ann Althouse and Glenn Reynolds their pet theory continues to be shredded by factual information.

The former president is very much at the center of his wife’s campaign — helping to raise money, muscling endorsements, providing strategic and policy advice and joining her on the trail. But after the political and personal turbulence that occurred during his two terms in the White House, there have been persistent questions about whether the nation is eager for what could amount to a third Clinton presidential term.

At this point, however, the former president is seen in favorable terms. Two-thirds of Americans said they approve of the job he did while he was in office — virtually the reverse of the ratings they give to President Bush’s current performance. Clinton remains overwhelmingly popular with Democrats, and 63 percent of independents and even a third of Republicans also gave him positive marks.
