Polling Shows the Presidental Race is Tightening.
This was just up on Political Wire. The survey shows that the tightening is on both sides. I think this means many undecideds are choosing a candidate now. It will be interesting to see where the polling stands at the end of summer.
I, personally, do not put too much stock into the polls, good or bad for my candidate, right now. This early it's more name than anything. More people will be into it in the summer and so, that is why I think the end of summer will be more telling.
Anyway, here is the blurb.

www.politicalwire.com

A new CNN/Opinion Research poll finds the presidential race tightening up in both parties, with frontrunners losing ground since last month's poll.

In the Democratic race, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads with 36%, trailed by Sen. Barack Obama at 28% and John Edwards at 15%.

On the Republican side, Rudy Giuliani leads with 27%, trailed by Sen. John McCain at 24%, Fred Thompson at 11%, Mitt Romney at 10% and Newt Gingrich at 8%.

1. These kinds of polls crack me up...
we still have almost a year before the first primary.

I refuse to feed into all the hysteria.

There is still so much time. This is all BS right now.

2. Oh goodie. And I'm putting up my Christmas
decorations tomorrow. It's a long, long, LONG way to November 2008. Much can and will happen between now and then. And CNN/Opinion Research can take their results and shove them where the sun don't shine. CNN is now the network who brings us Glenn Beck. If they ran a poll that said the sky was blue I wouldn't believe or trust them.
