Voters trust Clinton over GOP on Benghazi
Source: Public Policy Polling
PPP's newest national poll finds that Republicans aren't getting much traction with their focus on Benghazi over the last week. Voters trust Hillary Clinton over Congressional Republicans on the issue of Benghazi by a 49/39 margin and Clinton's +8 net favorability rating at 52/44 is identical to what it was on our last national poll in late March. Meanwhile Congressional Republicans remain very unpopular with a 36/57 favorability rating.
Voters think Congress should be more focused on other major issues right now rather than Benghazi. By a 56/38 margin they say passing a comprehensive immigration reform bill is more important than continuing to focus on Benghazi, and by a 52/43 spread they think passing a bill requiring background checks for all gun sales should be a higher priority.
While voters overall may think Congress' focus should be elsewhere there's no doubt about how mad Republicans are about Benghazi. 41% say they consider this to be the biggest political scandal in American history to only 43% who disagree with that sentiment. Only 10% of Democrats and 20% of independents share that feeling. Republicans think by a 74/19 margin than Benghazi is a worse political scandal than Watergate, by a 74/12 margin that it's worse than Teapot Dome, and by a 70/20 margin that it's worse than Iran Contra.

That poll is useless. And why is it useless? If you don't know chit about Benghazi, because the MSM has ignored it, what do you think your poll results will be when asked about a subject you know nothing about. MSM, Pubs. bad. Clinton good. That's what they know from the MSM. The other area of the economy/jobs, immigration, guns. Those issues have been around for all of Obama's 5 yrs. Benghazi, well, hel, that happened a long time ago and besides, what difference does it make.
The poll is useless and looks very ameteurish. Pubs. have kept up with it. Others have not. Thus the results. If the roles were reversed, the results would be reversed.

That's how they play ball; seeing Lanny Davis last week on "Morning Joe" only dredged up all the memories of bimbo eruption response team, the Monica apologists, Whitewater, etc.

Then those voters have been mislead and given false information or deprived of the facts. I suggest we appoint Chelsea to take the murdered victims place in Benghazi. Will see how outraged hilary and bill become we the embassy is not protected during an attack. Fair enough?
