Eighty-five percent of Democrats want to see former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, the partys frontrunner for the 2016 presidential nomination, enter the race, compared to just 11 percent who say they dont want to see her run, according to a new poll from CBS News.
Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. was actually the only other potential Democratic contender to be rated one way or the other by a majority of Democrats; 40 percent want him to run and 38 percent say they do not.
But about eight-in-10 Democrats say they have not heard enough about either outgoing Maryland Gov. Martin OMalley or former Sen. Jim Webb of Virginia to say. Mr. Webb is the only candidate on the Democratic side to have taken formal steps toward a run in 2016, recently forming an exploratory committee as he weighs a bid.
But 71 percent say they havent heard enough about Sen. Bernie Sanders, Vermont Independent, to say whether they think he should run, and 65 percent say the same about New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
Even Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, who has risen to become a populist hero among progressive groups and has fended off pleas to enter the race from liberals, wasnt well known enough for 57 percent of Democrats to say either way. Twenty-three percent say theyd like to see her enter the race and 20 percent say they wouldnt.
The survey of 1,001 adults was taken from Jan. 9-12 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 6 percent among the results compiled form Democrats.

Hillary Clinton run wanted by 85 percent of Democrats: poll
With Hillary Clintons not-yet-official presidential campaign revving up, the shadow campaigns are winding down. And as part of that, the outside Democratic groups that support her are discussing how to merge their efforts to help Clinton.
Ready for Hillary, the energetic, pro-Clinton super PAC, plans to shut down for good if and when Clinton announces for president, but not before finding a home for two key assets: A massive e-mail list of roughly 3 million supporters that the group has generated and its extensive social media network, which includes more than 2 million Facebook fans and roughly 150,000 followers.
How the Clintons Are Tag-Teaming Their Way to 2016
Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama 'Most Admired' People - Again
Jeb Bush Will 'Actively Explore the Possibility of Running for President'
Both are seen as opportunities for marketing and outreach that can live beyond the existence of Ready for Hillary.
The e-mail list and corresponding data are expected to be transferred to Clintons official campaign in what is called a list swap a legally complicated process that will surely be scrutinized by outside groups, such as the Campaign Legal Center, which work to enforce campaign finance laws.
The fate of Ready for Hillarys social media accounts is still undecided.
But, Adam Parkhomenko, the Executive Director of the super PAC has an idea: Transfer its Facebook and Twitter accounts in to the hands of another pro-Democratic group, Emilys List.
"At the end of the day, if they wanted it, Facebook and Twitter would probably move to Emilys List," Parkhomenko told ABC News in a recent interview.

Two Pro-Clinton Groups in Talks to Join Social Media Forces

Sen. Rand Paul, Kentucky Republican, reiterated what could become a go-to attack line for a would-be presidential campaign over the weekend, saying that former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clintons response to the Sept. 11, 2012 terrorist attack on a U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya, precludes her from becoming president.
Hillary Clinton got cable after cable to protect the consulate in Benghazi. And what did she do? Nothing, Mr. Paul told supporters in Reno, according to the Gazette-Journal. I say, Hillary Clintons behavior of not providing adequate support should absolutely preclude her from ever being considered as president.
The State Department has been faulted for inadequate security leading up the attack, which left four Americans dead, including the U.S. Ambassador to Libya but a recent bipartisan report from the House Intelligence Committee largely cleared the CIA of intentional wrongdoing in the run-up to the attack.
Mr. Pauls comments drew a response from a spokesman for the Democratic National Committee, who cited Mr. Pauls past support for cutting foreign aid and last years partial shutdown of the federal government as reasons that he should not be considered for president.
If Rand Paul wants to talk about whats disqualifying for being president, he should look in the mirror, said DNC spokesman Mo Elleithee. Spreading conspiracies about Benghazi, which even an investigation by the Republican-controlled House Intelligence Committee found that the CIA and military acted properly and that there was no wrongdoing by the Obama administration, is disqualifying.
Rand Paul is deft at political primary trolling, but being president is a lot harder than that, Mr. Elleithee continued. On the issues that matter most to our security and economy, hes disqualified himself from any serious consideration.
