There’s change at the top in the race for the Republican Presidential nomination.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds former Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson earning support from 28% of Likely Republican Primary Voters. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani attracts support from 27%.

While Thompson’s one-point edge is statistically insignificant, it is the first time all year that anybody but Giuliani has been on top in Rasmussen Reports polling. A week ago, Thompson and Giuliani were tied at 24%

Fred Thompson gets more free publicity out of Law & Order reruns and media speculation than he could buy by actually entering the race. He’s smart to milk it for all it is worth.

It was only a matter of time before Fred took the number one spot. My only question was whether it would happen before or after he announced. BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!

The gap will widen as the summer months go on. Are there any gay pride parades that Rudy will be marching in wearing his dress over the summer?

I am dead set against Julie Annie and McNut. That said, I think Romney is the best to clean-up and reduce federal gov't based on his proven history to clean-up the Olympic mess.

I also believe Fred and Romney are equally conservative (Romney a bit more) but fred would be more direct in dealing with the hildebeast and not pussyfoot around her like so many do. Attack. Attack. Attack. (the beast certainly will)

[ConservativeDude]

Looks like Rudy’s national strategy might well work out after all....for Thompson that is!

[Vanbasten]

Good.

I never understood why conservatives would try to outliberal the liberals by nominating Guiliani. (he is a likable guy, but he’s still a liberal)

[SE Mom]

Is there a better url for that? I tried it and got “this page cannot be displayed”....

[TommyDale]

"Oh, no! Fred dresses like a real man!"

[freekitty]

In some states, independent voters are allowed to participate in Republican primaries. In others, only Republicans can participate. Among Republicans only in the current poll, it’s Thompson 29% Giuliani 24% Romney 11% and McCain 10%.
