[ QUOTE ] If not, Giuliani likely wins over Hillary in a walk. [/ QUOTE ] Not in this lifetime. Hillary would crush Giuliani. [/ QUOTE ] Look at anyones sample polls of hypothetical matchups of Rep and Dem contenders. Giuliani is the only Republican with any support nationally and any hope of winning AS IT STANDS. Romney loses to almost any Dem. McCain coupld possibly lose an election to Kucinich at this point. The Super Tuesday results will probably make Giuliani uncatchable by a Republican contender without drop outs. Romney can't get a large sample without massive spending and work, and people are already highly unfavorable to him. Huckabee and Brownback think he is a heathen, which is why i expect them to not drop out before they keep the Fundamentalists from rallying behind him. Between them they can keep Romney behind Giuliani. Once Rudy wins delegates on Super Tuesday, its over. Where does Fred Thomspon go? He is mulling going at Rudy on terrorism, where he will lose, or going ChristaNazi, where he doesnt have abortion credentials. He is a sort of No Man's Land candidate in the primaries. SO get used to Rudy unless we have a new entry or McCain recovers. |

And, FWIW, I think RP could poll 15% nationally. More depending on the Rep and Dem nominees. He is a pull out NOW candidate. That alone would get votes/$. No Dem frontrunner is promising a pullout, only one with any support is Richardson. Romney especially with the nomination, there WILL be a 3rd candidate. Giuliani shuts out a wide range of third candidate options though.

Re: Ron Paul- Will he place 2nd or better in today\'s Iowa straw poll?
Some help from anybody.
I am sure I saw a post or maybe a link to an article saying Obama finished with around 6% of the votes in a recent Iowa REPUBLICAN poll. Did anybody else see this? Was it a joke? I found the page almost immediately after posting this: http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/8/9/165515/9741 |

Tommy Thompson came in 6th and likely will leave the race. [/ QUOTE ] That guy had big, strange-looking ears anyway. Hardly presidential. No loss. |

I think its exciting to see ron paul got so much of the vote. 9.1% isn't great but its not bad either. He's extremely popular on the internet. He's a longshot yes, but he is getting stronger the closer we get.

Normally I move threads like this to Politics, but as long as you guys play nice and keep the political ranting out of it I'll give this one a pass since I'm in a good mood [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
