Former President Bill Clinton on the current state of the GOP: "I’ll be surprised if he’s not re-elected,” Clinton said, adding that Obama would do better when matched against a specific opponent like Romney.
Clinton said that Romney did “a very good job” as governor of Massachusetts and would be a credible general election candidate. But Clinton added that Romney or any Republican nominee would be hampered by “a political environment in the Republican primary that basically means you can’t be authentic unless you’ve got a single-digit I.Q.”
Bill Clinton left office with a 66% approval rating, the most popular president since FDR. That's 42 points higher than George W. Bush's exit rating of 24%.
