Obama May Not Face Democratic Challenger in 2012: Polls Not Good for Hillary

Many people suspect sometime next year, Hillary Clinton will hang up the Secretary of State role and go back into presidential campaign mode. A new Gallup Poll shows that Hillary may be best to hang on to what little power she does have in the State Department.

If Secretary of State Hillary Clinton were to challenge President Barack Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2012, she would currently have the support of 37% of Democrats nationally, while 52% would support Obama.
