It is polls like this that supporters of Hillary Clinton hope will drag the popular former secretary of state into the 2016 presidential race.
In a Quinnipiac poll out Thursday, the ex-New York senator beats all comers in the 2016 presidential field in hypothetical match ups against several top rivals.
The poll tested Democrats Clinton, Vice President Joe Biden, and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo individually against Republicans -- New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, who ran as Mitt Romney's vice-presidential pick in 2012 against President Barack Obama.
Clinton was the only Democrat to beat all three Republicans, and Christie, who was not invited to next week's conservative confab CPAC, showed the most strength for the GOP.
