Americans Like Clinton At State Department

Posted Jan 15, 2009 at 11:21 AM by Maurice Berger

A new poll reports that while U.S. voters like Secretary of State  Condoleezza Rice better than her designated successor, Hillary Clinton, most are confident that Clinton is up to the task of being America’s chief diplomat: "62% are at least somewhat confident in Clinton’s ability to address the international challenges facing our nation in Iraq, Afghanistan and the Gaza Strip. 34% are Very Confident . . . 15%, however, are not at all confident of Clinton’s abilities to deal with these issues."
