Seems much more accurate than the ARG poll out of South Carolina that showed Willard "Mitt" Romney in the lead in South Carolina, IMO. Is there anyone here that's EVER been South of the Mason-Dixon line that thinks Rudy or Romney beats Fred in a Southern or border state?

I could come up with some scenarios for Mitt, but not for Rudy.

I agree about that other poll that was put up tonight. There were too many month to month jumps on it. Absent a scandal, the gradual movements shown on this one look more realistic.

At least we can agree that we want any one of the trio of Romney and Rudy and McCain knocked out of the first position.

Rasmussen tends to screen respondents more rigorously for the elusive “likely voter”. That is why they tend to differ(and are usually more accurate)

Such early polls don’t mean a great deal. Still, it’s at least as usefull as a poll showingt Romney’s stock valued tripling in the blink of an eye.

It’s nice to see Romney starting to gain the traction that he deserves.

I don't see it... especially Giuliani. On guns, gays and illegals... this nut-case is a disaster. Voting for Romney, on the other hand, would be a gamble at best. So much of his campaign is based on how he feels now... and little about what he's actually accomplished as Governor(next-to-nothing).

Why McCain is even a blip on the radar is an anathema to me.

Thompson should win comfortably in SC... and pick up the Romney/McCain voters as the primary moves on.

They knew it was BS, but pretended to believe it. I was really surprised not one Romney supporter wanted to bet me Thompson would kick Romney's butt in SC. Romney supporters are as disingenuous as their candidate.

Rudy will have to be stopped in SC by a vote for Thompson if I were tactically voting against more liberal candidates.

I wish all the big names would go away and we could find a better candidate.

Sending Rudy/Romney into the south to defeat Fred is roughly equivalent to sending George B. McClellan and Ambrose Burnside to take care of Nathan Bedford Forrest. The result “won’t be pretty.”

The way Fred has been conducting his campaign recently, if he somehow manages to win the nomination then Hillary would win in a landslide.

Fred needs to sharpen and quit being so lazy, this is a Presidential election and not a election for a small town mayor.

ARG is consistently bullish on Romney... I'm not sure what in their methodology does that, but ARG results are generall out of line with everyone else for that reason.

Is there anyone here that's EVER been South of the Mason-Dixon line that thinks Rudy or Romney beats Fred in a Southern or border state?

I've been saying that the only states east of, and including, Texas and south of the Mason-Dixon line that aren't "slam dunks" for Thompson unless something goes badly wrong for him, are Virgina and Florida (I should probably add Maryland, too).

More good news for Fred and conservatives. Rooty`s been battered down, but there is still more work to do.

Go Fred08!
