Bad news for Rudy Giuliani: his lead in the polls is shrinking quite dramatically. The main cause seems to be… (growing) support for Fred Thompson - who still has to announce his candidacy. Where, in February, “44 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents preferred” him for the nomination, “that figure is [now] down to 33 percent.”

The truth is, in the past week, Giuliani has gained about 8 points even after exposing himself on abortion and guns. Here are the polls if you want to see them:

If you want to know why all the anti-Rudy tirades on FR tonight, I suggest you take a look at the today's Fox News poll showing Rudy at 35 and Thompson at 8. All of the buzz Thompson is trying to generate has born little fruit as he has lost 7 points in the past few weeks.

I think some good and decent conservatives are reaching the tipping point. The realization is sinking in that the political center has indeed shifted away from us, yet again. And yet again we are confronted with having to choose between ideology and relevance.

Even if Rudy Giuliani is not welcome in your house, I am sure all conservatives will always be welcome in his. He will have milk and chocolate chip cookies waiting for you.

Yeah, I have been reading them. I thought I could lighten things up a little.

That's very disturbing if true. Got links?

I know that you didn’t miss JR’s words today on continuing to pimp for Rudy. Why do you continue?

I have to give you credit for trying to exude an air of logic in your arguments, even though you're wrong.

You're the band that's continuing to play while the Titanic is going down.

No doubt baked and served by one of the queers he lived with.

I doubt that, more like a big vat of Koolaide is what he has for conservatives.
