Giuliani is the clear favorite among Republicans who are not familiar with all of the other candidates in the field.

The "not familiar with all of the other candidates" thing will change rather dramatically starting in about 2 weeks. Fred's coming, and things won't be remotely the same afterwards. Most of the other candidates (McStain, Hunter, Huckabee, Tancredo, Brownback & Paul) will be gone shortly thereafter, and Thompson will take most of their voters and money, thereby giving him a clear lead. Rudy and Romney will be politically doomed from that point.

Hunter won’t be gone.

I tend to agree with that statement, but I’m not going to take off the Hunter ‘08 bumper sticker until after the Primaries.
