This isn't a general election poll as such, so Tender, feel free to move this if you like.  The question posed was simply "Would this person make a good president?"  Sort of like if we used approval voting:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/interactive/2013/02/13/fox-news-poll-hillary-clinton-and-rice-top-picks-who-would-make-good-president/

yes/no %
H. Clinton 55/42% for +13%
Christie 37/33% for +4%
Rice 43/43% for +/-0%
Rubio 25/29% for -4%
Ryan 37/46% for -9%
Jindal 16/25% for -9%
Patrick 6/19% for -13%
O'Malley 5/18% for -13%
McDonnell 6/22% for -16%
Cuomo 16/39% for -23%
Biden 35/59% for -24%
J. Bush 26/56% for -30%

[Poll conducted Feb. 4-6, 1010 registered voters.]

Huge gender gap on Clinton, which is consistent with other polls we've been seeing recently on both her favorability and head-to-head matchups.  And olds are more likely to think she'd be a good president than youngs, in contrast to the normal Dem. trend of appealing to the young.  Again, consistent with the polling from PPP on the age gap collapsing.

Rice is the one Republican for whom women are more likely to think she'd be a good president than men.

As with the PPP polls, we see that Christie's strong numbers come more from crossover appeal, where Clinton's come from her huge numbers among Democrats.

Christie:
Dems: -7%
Indies: +8%
Reps: +14%

Clinton:
Dems: +70%
Indies: +7%
Reps: -46%

They asked essentially the same question for Jeb Bush in May 2006, and it was 22/57% for -35%.  So over the course of 7 years, he's managed to improve from -35% to -30% on whether he'd be a good president.
