Bill Clinton vs. GWB

CNN is reporting on a poll comparing job performance between William J. Clinton and George. W. Bush. And it ain't pretty if you're a die-hard Bush fan:
Poll: Clinton outperformed Bush
Respondents favored Clinton by greater than 2-to-1 margins when asked who did a better job at handling the economy (63 percent Clinton, 26 percent Bush) and solving the problems of ordinary Americans (62 percent Clinton, 25 percent Bush).
On foreign affairs, the margin was 56 percent to 32 percent in Clinton's favor; on taxes, it was 51 percent to 35 percent for Clinton; and on handling natural disasters, it was 51 percent to 30 percent, also favoring Clinton.
Moreover, 59 percent said Bush has done more to divide the country, while only 27 percent said Clinton had.

The only place where the two came close was when respondents were asked who was more honest as president, and even then, Clinton outpolled Bush, 46 percent to 41 percent (within the poll's margin of error).
Clearly, when it comes to pissing off the American public, Clinton didn't do it too.
