Quote WASHINGTON ? A new national poll shows Vice President Biden faring better than Hillary Clinton in match-ups against top Republican presidential candidates, as the VP weighs jumping into the race. The Quinnipiac University National Poll comes on the heels of another showing Biden running strong in head-to-head match-ups against Republicans in key swing states. Both polls show Clinton polling better than Biden ? who is not a declared candidate ? in the Democratic primary race. But the latest national poll gives Biden the slight edge when squared against leading GOP contenders. "Note to Biden: They like you, they really like you, or they like you more than the others,? Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll, said in a statement. The poll shows Biden leading Republican front-runner Donald Trump, 48-40 percent. He also leads former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, 45-39 percent. |
