A new Time Magazine poll out Thursday has a lot of interesting (and not terribly surprising) numbers. They include low levels of support for President Bush, a big majority favoring withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq before September 2008, and a majority believing Bush is trying to "cover up" what happenned in the firing of U.S. Attorneys.
We draw you attention to the Presidential race, though, and the strong bump John Edwards has gotten since the attention surrounding his wife's cancer recurred. Time finds the Democratic Primary race this way:
Clinton at 38%, Obama at 30% and Edwards at 28%.
On the Republican side, Time shows Rudy Giuliani's Republican Primary numbers sinking back to reality after he ran 20 points ahead of John McCain. Following the drip, drip, drip of details about him including his son not talking to him and his third wife being on her third husband, Giuliani stills leads McCain, but now it's 35%-22%.
Keep in mind, however, it is only March, 2007
LOL. Doesn't he, though?
it's refreshing isn't it, to have someone logically discuss rudy in an objective way? i appreciate you, doggone : )
I've said that Edwards would be the Democratic nominee before, and nothing has led me to change that opinion. As soon as they have their first debate, Edwards charisma will sweep the shrill shrew from the democratic field.
Keep on clicking those ruby slippers, Dorothy. Time is a LIBERAL piece of crap, not worth the paper it's written on. Rudy is doing extremely well in all national polls.
Go Rudy!
You missed the whole point. Why is the media reporting on Rudy's spouse, but not Hillary's spouse? Seems that if Rudy's wife number of spouses was important to be reported, well then so should old Bill's affairs should reported since they are of a much more current nature.
I must say I am surprised that the Edwards thing was so effective for him. Turned out to be the political genius move of the campaign so far. Of course the only problem is that his wife is 80% likely to be dead five years from now, and the family wont have so much as a single night together for 2 of those 5 years. Other than that, brilliant move.
It's so early in the game...trying to trash all of our own candidates seems pretty silly to me. I have my choices but I will vote for the GOP man, whoever that is. Even more so if bill clinton's wife is on the ballot!
You're just a baby! Are you sure you're old enough to handle the responsibility of the "Bigfoot" ping list? :)
I was picturing you as some old geezer, actually.
Hmm. I might make you come back down to GA to marry my daughter in 10 years. Any objections to younger women? Hehehee
I always enjoy reading Dog Gone's posts. He is never hysterical or rude. A very even-tempered person, it seems to me. Are ya gettin' these compliments, Dog? He-he!
Judy Nathan is personally fairly impressive. Before she met Giuliani, she was one of of Bristol-Myers' top sales managers
What charisma? LOL
Rudy is a no-sale. He will never get the conservative vote. If he gets the GOP nod look for a third party candidate to pull in 15%-20%. Bill's wife will get in the same way he did.
Nope, I could care less about these national polls (the only one that really matters is the primary election poll and the general election poll, where votes actually matter).
But I've seen about twenty polls about Rudy posted within the last week. Might as well show him on the downswing since you seem to live and die by them.
I said it weeks ago.
Rudy has peaked.
maybe we should cool it, he may think we are coming on to him!! ; )
And I trust you, except when it comes to Annie Coulter. LOL
You apparently haven't kept up with the polling among Evangelicals and other conservatives. They are going for Rudy over the other candidates. He will win the nomination by a good margin.
I don't think there's a high enough volume of Bigfoot/Crypto stories on FR to say that it's a "difficult responsibility," but enough to justify it's existence.
Hmm. I might make you come back down to GA to marry my daughter in 10 years. Any objections to younger women? Hehehee
Um...I'll get back to you on that in about 10 years.
Keep telling yourself that, Dorothy.
Aw, shoot. He'd love it!
