RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - Democrat Hillary Clinton is already aligning herself with some of President Obama's views and policies, but a good chunk of the electorate believes that will hurt her, should she become the Democratic Party's nominee for president.

Rasmussen polling shows 47 percent of likely U.S. voters says Obama's record will hurt the nominee, while 23 percent say it will help the candidate.

Twenty-two percent say his record won't have an impact.
