Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani is the favourite Republican United States presidential contender for voters in the Garden State, according to a poll by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. 48 per cent of respondents in New Jersey would vote for Giuliani in a head-to-head contest against Democratic New York senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.
In other match-ups, Rodham Clinton holds a one-point edge over Arizona senator John McCain, and a 24-point advantage over former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney. McCain leads former North Carolina senator John Edwards by six points, and Illinois senator Barack Obama by three points.
In 2004, Democratic nominee John Kerry carried New Jerseys 15 electoral votes, with 53 per cent of the vote. No Republican has won the Garden State since George H. Bush in 1988.
Incumbent George W. Bush is ineligible for a third term in office. The next United States presidential election is scheduled for November 2008.

Duh....
Nice homepage.
2 more years of polls. I'm tired already.
Countdown to the obligatory Rudy in drag photo....
Thanks Dude
Too bad we're constantly hearing about polls concerning who would beat whom in whatever state, blah, blah, blah. Unfortunately, this nonsense will continue up to election day in 2008.
I think Shrillery's stock will drop considerably whenever the day comes that she has to answer questions about herself in front of an uncontrived, pre-made audience. Things like 1) who killed Vince Foster, 2) how many people assisted you in the coverup and moving of his corpse, 3) why did you steal over $100,000 of taxpayers' property out of the White House when you left, 4) why did you allow drug use and homosexual trysts in the White House, 5) where are the 1000 FBI files that were stolen, 6) etc.
Right now it's all creampuffs and roses. Who knows where these two will be come election day.
I like that pic...takes a big man to dress up as a woman!
Some folks like the horses...we at FR like politics.
Here you go! I am backing up A51!
The title of this article should be:
"Man who Dresses Like a Woman Would Defeat Woman Who Dresses Like a Man in New Jersey"
Thx PKM!
Rudy is highly thought of in NJ.
"Or man who dresses as a woman for fun competes with woman who is afraid to reveal her gender."
Thanks for the ping! :-)
LOL! Wait until some NJ posters come to this thread to tell you they'll NEVER for Rudy and this poll is _________ and __________ and he can't win NJ.
Go Rudy go!
Dream on.........she NEVER does unscripted venues and none of the MSM or even the primary debates with force her to talk about any of those things.
And NJ goes RED! LOL!
