New SurveyUSA poll:

Republican hopefuls in Florida:

.

McCain ....... 27%

Giuliani ..... 19%

The poll was conducted after New Hampshire but before the GOP presidential debate in South Carolina.

margin of error of 4.5 percent.

........ Beautiful......

Fred 8%? I really was fooled. I thought there were more conservatives in the Repubican Party. It’s disappointing to say the least.

So much for the notion that “Fred is coming on.”

Fred has a lot of ground to make up. I don't think he can do it.

I have a quandary in Missouri....Vote for Obama on the Den ballot or for Fred on the GOP ballot come Feb 5

to be fair....this poll was finished before Fred’s showing in the SC debate.... I bet he ticks up a few points because of the debate.

Conservatives need not apply.

The GOP has been so busy tossing conservatives overboard in favor of “electability” that they party as a whole has become unelectable.

And to be fair, Rudy hasn't campaigned in SC to speak of. The fact is, these polls are showing, big-time, the "buzz" associated with the last winner (Huck was supposedly ahead in NH, remember).

I'm not saying they are necessarily wrong, but like Rush keeps saying, this race hasn't even really started till you get out of the states where Dems can have a big impact on the outcome.
