Hillary Clinton favorability rating keeps falling, poll shows



There is a lot of talk about Hillary Clinton lately, but that's not helping the public's opinion of her, according to a new Gallup poll.

While a majority of Americans continue to have a favorable opinion of her, it's been on the steady decline since 2012 when it hit 66 percent. Now, 54 percent view her favorably, which is down from 59 percent in February.

Her favorability rating is the lowest it's been since Aug. 2008 (54 percent), when she was gearing up to speak at the Democratic National Convention and endorse then-Sen. Barack Obama for the 2008 presidential nomination.

Of course her favorability will decline as she becomes more political again. Metric System Jun 2014 #2

Poor thing will have to scrape by on that $8million (and speaking fees) if she doesn't get the job. Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2014 #4
