(Angus Reid Global Monitor) - Rudy Giuliani holds a five-point edge in the national race for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination in the United States, according to a poll by Harris Interactive. 31 per cent of respondents would vote for the former New York City mayor in a 2008 primary.
Actor and former Tennessee senator Fred Thompson is second with 26 per cent, followed by former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney with 17 per cent, and Arizona senator John McCain with 12 per cent. Support is lower for former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, Texas congressman Ron Paul, California congressman Duncan Hunter,

We have an ideological struggle going on as reflected by the variety of positions represented by our candidates. OTOH, the democrat field is entirely socialist, if not downright Stalinist. The races are close enough they can go either way for the Republican candidates.
What I find particularly devastating for the Hillary camp is that roughly 50% of the nation will never even consider voting for the little commie.
We're going to see some pretty foul maneuvers coming from their camp come the end of summer.
National polls do not seem useful except to sway potential primary voters. The nomination is a primary battle. Influencing primary voters is different than influencing the public and general elections.
The Republican party is split so I am not optimistic about electing any candidate. I think that Rudy will be nominee but he will split the party. FDT can unify the party and win in November but I doubt that he will be nominated. He does not seem to have the local organization to win key primaries. Perhaps he also lacks money.

“but do not yet support Thompson”
The honeymoon is over with Thompson. I’m glad to say I was never enamored.
But, but...Mitt has spent millions of dollars of his own money to buy, er, garner support from the sheeple, uh, people of the United States! How is this possible?!! How can Fred be running neck and neck with Rudy: “one of the most famous Americans in the world”?
Fred doesn’t have to spend tons of cash, he just needs to get his message through to the folks, like his plans to stem illegal immigration: http://www.fred08.com/virtual/Immigration.aspx
Don thy flamesuit, sister. The Fredbots doth approacheth!
Yeah, well, Mitt would like to be where FRed is..
Well, this is a FRedbot thread, after all, isn’t it? You Mittbots are a sharp bunch.
I think Mitt would just like to have all his misspent money back, so he can hire new illegal lawnmowers and buy a new dog...
You have been for Romney since long before Fred Thompson was on the radar screen. You will still be pushing Mitt when he returns to his hedge fund after he is clobbered in the primaries.
Your guy has no shot in spite of spending several fortunes to try to get people to like him. Sorry, those are the facts. The truth hurts, but it is still the truth.
'scuse me, don't put words in my mouth that I did not utter -- I did not say whom I am supporting, and at any rate, I'm not a bot for any candidate.
The nomination of Rudy will blow the Republican Party apart. Fred is the only candidate who can unite all of the various factions. Fred can defeat the Bi!ch and I believe he will have coattails, especially in those Red States that lost Pubbie Congressmen in normally Republican Districts in 2006.
Well, if it talks like a duck and sounds like a duck, one assumes it is a duck. You might want to watch how you quack, as you are the one who called us FRedbots, duckie.
I’m getting ready to do my 3rd donation next week.
Fred is the most likely to achieve these objectives. Given the MSM bias, he is probably the only one who can guarrantee her defeat. This is why the MSM is so anxious to try to tear him down, while leaving Rudy and Mitt alone.
I’m planning on donating again, but I’m not sure when. It will be my third donation as well.
