Opinions are split.
Matt Nisbett think it is bad here, here and here.
Sara Robinson thinks it was good here and here.
Although I have no great love for Bill Clinton, I am siding with Sara here (read her posts to see why), just on gut feeling. But also, check out this AOL poll (never known to be a bastion of liberalism):

This suggests that Sara is more right than Matt, methinks.
Was Clinton’s interview with Mike Chris Wallace good or bad?
