This is not surprising. Look for Romney to continue slowly improving his position.

Giuliani did it to himself, and is continuing to do it.

Fred is doing pretty well, considering that he hasn’t announced.

Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani in his campaign appearances this year has stated that he personally abhors abortion, even though he supports keeping a legal right to choose. But records show that in the ‘90s he contributed money at least six times to Planned Parenthood, one of the country’s leading abortion rights groups and its top provider of abortions.

"25 percent of people who identified themselves as Republicans or leaning Republican..."

...AND watch CNN, are 100% liars.

Why doesn't CNN poll FOX viewers if they want a sampling of those who lean republican?

It is not suprising that a democrat push poll wants McCrazy. I am hving a hard time though figuring out why cut and run is only at 1%. Maybe the dimwits have not found out even the Republicans have one coward in its ranks.

Actually Rudy only lost 2 points from the last CNN poll. The 'big' move was Romney up 4.

Not sure about the “last poll” but I recall CNN polls showing him doubling McCains numbers in the not so distant future.

The frontrunner is the frontrunner. That’s the bottom line.

The circular firing squad around here is emblematic of why we’re looking at President Hillary.

As long as Rudy's numbers continue to trend DOWN (and they WILL), it's a GOOD thing!!

If you want to SPLIT and DIVIDE the Republican Party WIDE OPEN,,,,

a LIBERAL like JulieAnnie is JUST THE MAN FOR THE JOB!!

You are free to push for a liberal GOP nominee. I’m free to push for a conservative one. That’s what a primary is all about.

The polling error of +- 4.5% indicates that the race is wide open. A lot can change in the next eight months.
