Despite the Republican rout last month and the unusual scorn he elicits from some people, Bill Clinton is the most admired man in the U.S., according to a new poll. And First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton tied with Mother Teresa as the woman most admired by Americans, a CNN/USA Today poll of 1,016 American finds. The second most admired man is another controversial Democrat and lately a successful international peace maker: former President Jimmy Carter. Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, former first lady Barbara Bush and talk show host Oprah Winfrey occupy third, fourth, and fifth place as the people Americans admire most.
