It's early in the primary season at best but like it or not this where the populace falls at this time... For some there is major ground to be made up and for others there is major ground that can be lost. Time will tell who will make up ground and who will lose.

The Poll in question

 18. – 23. Now I am going to read a list of possible candidates for the next presidential 
race. For each one, please tell me how comfortable you would be having that person as 
president. (RANDOMIZE) SCALE: 1. Extremely comfortable 2. Very comfortable 
3. Somewhat comfortable 4. Not very comfortable 5. Not at all comfortable 6. (Don’t know)

                         --- Comfortable ---     - Not comfortable -

Hillary has wide support from Dims. But still suffers big negatives especially among independents.

Rudy has good support among Republicans and surprisingly little to moderate negatives among Republicans, Independents and Dims too.
