Another poll where Newt is in third, leading Romney.

Not bad for a guy who isn't even running.

McCain may be hampered by the situation in Iraq (considered the most important issue by voters). Most Americans believe we should be reducing the number of U.S. troops fighting in that country while McCain supports the President’s call for more troops.

What's Rudy's position on the surge?

Am I alone in thinking I want nothing to do with either one of them? Has the GOP sunk to such a low, that they are considered the front runners by the media?

McCain would be a disaster as the GOP nominee.

Guliani won't be much better. With his recent surge, it is a call for concern.

Guliani, like it or not, folded rather than face Hillary for the NY Senate. [Why?]

It appears she will be the Dem candidate in 08.

If Guliani is the GOP nominee, and if he does have to face Hillary for the White House, will Rudy fold again?

[If you say 'no', then ask yourself, 'why did he fold in NY?' Postrate cancer? Curious. John Kerry had surgery for the same condition just months before he ran for the White House. It didn't seem to interfere with Kerry's run.]

The bad news just keeps coming. With any of the top three or four mentioned, we'll be lucky to get 40% of the popular vote.

Blah blah blah.

NO northeastern inner-city liberal RINOs need apply.

Too bad RINO-rudy's relatives don't grow weary of posting this tripe.

Looking at these candidates (and squinting in disgust, through a crack between my fingers, at the Dem candidates), I feel even more fortunate to have this guy as my PM.

Ron Paul sounds good on everything except his stance on defense...the rest are more hole than boat. Is it folly to still hope for a candidate in the mold of Reagan or Goldwater? Sure, one runs into the problem of letting perfect become the enemy of good enough...but damn.

A McCain for President yard sign will NEVER cast it's shadow on my front lawn.

As for Rudy he has what it takes to strike fear in the democrat front runners - but I'm not jumping on his band wagon just yet.

One thing I think many miss about Rudy.

He will carry a lot of Democrat votes - just like Reagan did.

His appeal is plain talk (not sound bites), he can speak without a script, his mastery of issues, and he is a leader.

Right now - a lot of people react to what they hear - the real test will come when these folks have to get up on stage and talk to all of us - and the media.

Rudy has the intellect to slice and dice anyone he will come up against in a debate.

If the polls continue like this, Rudy will get into the race which up to now he has noticable not committed to.

See article, "Open Letter To Members Of The GOP" under News/Activism/Activism/Chapters (currently in right hand column)on FR.

EXCELLENT opinion piece concerning the folly selling out (by settling for a RINO) conservative, core principles in order to have a SUPPOSED, "better" chance of "winning".

Compared to the Angus Reid Poll you posted yesterday, it appears that the conservative vote is leaving McCain and going to Newt and Mitt.

Candidate-Angus Reid-Rasmussen

Rudy>31-30
John>27-22
Newt>10-12
Mitt>07-10

When you add the support for Newt and Mitt, you have the growing locus of conservatism in the Republican Party. I welcome this trend and believe that Romney, not Mitt, will emerge as the conservative champion.

They must not have received the 'McCain's Ordained' memo.
