Rasmussen: Giuliani Leading Clinton By Nine

Rasmussen Reports ^ | February 23, 2007 | Scott Rasmussen

[LtdGovt]

Rudy is the only candidate who has consistently lead all the Democratic candidates. I think, if nominated, he will wipe the floor with Hillary.

Rudy ping.

"HE CAN'T WIN! HE CAN'T WIN! HE CAN'T.....oh, nevermind..."

How many FReepers actually believe this hogwash?

[11th Commandment]

The media end game. They pumped up McCain only to beat Bush; now that he can beat Hillary they portray him as old, nutty and not trusted by Conservative. Mitt looks the part so play on his Morman religion even though the religious right has been mostly silent. As soon as the Media figures out Rudy can beat Hillary, the cross dressing and divorce stories will be front page news.

Did Reagan win because he was a well-known and "popular conservative" or because he wasn't Jimmy Carter? I say probably both but times were so bad that NOT being Jimmy Carter accounted for quite a few votes right there in and of itself.

McCain is old, nutty and not trusted by Conservatives.

Rino Rudy can't beat Comrade Hillary, which is why the MSM is attempting to push him as the GOP candidate. The MSM will turn on Rudy after they've gotten him nominated.

Bump!

"They pumped up McCain only to beat Bush; now that he can beat Hillary they portray him as old, nutty and not trusted by Conservative."

Except for Pickering, who just endorsed him.

Not that I do, just sayin'...

I look at the race for President as contest in management skills. The winner is the one who has brought to bear the best skills to out-distance his opponents. There are so many variables one has to consider as a candidate, such as the vagaries of the MSM, local and regional political differences, ideologies of varying stripes, fund-raising, gaining (or losing) endorsements, building an effective campaign staff and last, but not least, effectively addressing the major issues of the moment.

The major issues of the moment are to defeat the dems and win big with a successful candidate who will vigorously prosecute the WOT.

I have volunteered for Duncan Hunter's campaign because I like his ideology. But, I haven't heard word one from anyone associated with his campaign.

I also expressed interest to Giuliani's campaign and I have been contacted by them.

While his ideology is much more acceptable to me, Hunter is doing a lousy job---for whatever reason, it's incumbent upon him to eliminate his shortcomings---in running his campaign. He is polling single digits at best, with numbers which are consistently below the typical margin of error. He is not doing those things he needs to do, like getting newsworthy events and raising the gobs of cash (around 100 million dollars) necessary to conduct a proper campaign. Some say, "just wait and Hunter will..." Why wait? The guy is getting off to a terrible start and shows no indication he will be able to catch up with the pack.

So, I've decided not to carry Hunter's water. He will have to do the hard work himself, and if he finally gets competitive, I'll be voting for him in the primary.

However, since the goal is not to lose to the dems, I'll vote in general for the GOP nominee, and I suspect that will be Rudy Giuliani.

... and most people won't care.

I decided today that I'm going to send Duncan Hunter some money. I don't think Rudy or Hillary will be the nominees. Its still very early and people are only going by Name Recognition. You have to remember in 2004 when Kerry was polling in low single numbers and everyone thought Dean was getting the nomination. There are still a lot of surprises yet to come.

[Brownback08]

Duncan Hunter is a true Conservative. He has a lot of work to do, but as Rush said on the Radio today it is still very early.

[mysterio]

If Hillary and Rudy traded party affiliation, would you then vote for Hillary so the dems don't win?

[madprof98]

Rudy is the new Howard Dean.
