Governor Huckabee is viewed favorably by 30%, a gain of four percentage points since last month and his strongest showing all year. But 43% still are Not Sure what to think of him. Twenty-seven percent (27%) have an unfavorable view.

Clinton is currently viewed favorably by 45% of Likely Voters nationwide while 54% offer a negative assessment of the former First Lady.

Obama’s numbers are 47% favorable and 45% unfavorable.

Hillary's negatives now up to 54%.  Wow!

Still, she's the next president IMO.  Craziest I've seen the electorate since I've been following presidential campaigns in 1968.

doesn't huckabee still do better than Romney?

Either way, people dislike hillary, but seem willing to put their trust into a known commodity than risk it on a "fresh". Even if they otherwise.....

[Eraserhead]

Rasmussen's Obama favorable numbers are obviously wrong again.

bad poll for dems.

I think we should put Hillary's unfavourables into context.

Not only does the right hate her, some elements of the left hate her too. Now wouldn't that equate to electoral disaster... probably not. In reality who would those people vote for between Clinton and Huckabee??? Would they throw their vote away?

Obama's negative jump seems to be the reaction from his foreign policy gaffes.

I kind of doubt it. In fact Rasmussen is only pollster out there to show this jump in his unfavorables.
