President Obama‘s job rating is suffering, as I argued in my most recent Washington Examiner column, from voters’ sense that things are in disarray and the world is spinning out of control. But he’s not the only one whose job rating is suffering. So is that of Hillary Clinton.

A Politico poll conducted July 3-13 asked respondents to rate Clinton’s performance as Secretary of State. The results: 14 percent excellent, 28 percent good, 21 percent fair and 32 percent poor. The number rating her performance poor was around double the number rating it excellent — a ratio that suggests that strength of opinion is on the negative side.
