Giuliani Leads Hillary by Three Points in U.S.

[oberliner]

Republican Rudy Giuliani remains ahead of Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton in a potential 2008 United States presidential contest, according to a poll by Rasmussen Reports. 47 per cent of respondents would vote for the former New York City mayor, while 44 per cent would vote for the New York senator.

Support for Rodham Clinton in this match-up increased by four points since mid-August, while backing for Giuliani remained stable. In a separate contest, Rodham Clinton holds a four-point advantage over actor and former Tennessee senator Fred Thompson.

1. How reliable is this pollster?

I don't believe this, to be honest.

3. Rasmussen Reports

They make this claim on their website:

Rasmussen Reports was also the nation's most accurate polling firm during the 2004 Presidential election and the only one to project both Bush and Kerry's vote total within half a percentage point of the actual outcome.

13. This Poll is a Crock

I believe the fundies will hold their nose and vote for Giuliani just to defeat Hillary.

4. there will be a 3rd party from the right if Rudy is the GOP nominee

there's not enuf backing and filling and lying that he could do to make himself acceptable to the fundies.

14. Edwards isn't ahead in his own party, but he still leads Guiliani in head-to-head polling

Democratic Senator John Edwards now holds solid leads over the two leading Republican Presidential hopefuls. The most recent Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows Edwards leading former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani 49% to 41%. Edwards dominates former Senator Fred Thompson 49% to 35%.
