Rudy Giuliani remains the top choice for Republican Party supporters (Paul climbs to 5% )

Two national polls in a row (the other was by CNN) now show Ron Paul at 5 percent. It looks like he will hit the needed 5 percent mark in the next Fox debate and Hunter and Tancredo will be going bye bye.

The twilight zone.

Hunter is on his heels, bro.

[JRios1968]

At this pace, Paul will be competitive sometime in 2010

[Captain Kirk]

A long time before 2010. You must have not been very good at math. Ron has quintupled his support in the last few months and doubled in the last month.

Methodology: Telephone interviews with 397 registered Republicans, conducted from Nov. 2 to Nov. 4, 2007. Margin of error is 5 per cent.

[Petronski]

At this pace, L.Ron might actually be competitive in 2016.

[Captain Kirk]

You can spin it anyway you want. Two widely cited national polls put him at 5 percent (Fox’s benchmark). Under these circumstances, it will be very difficult for them to justify excluding him

[Ingtar]

Please, this is not an attack. Do you have a link to a poll showing Congressman Hunter nearing 5%? This seems to have been buried.

[pissant]

Look at this link here. Gallup this week had him at 4% also.

Ok, ok...2009.

[JRios1968]

Hmmm...Paul shows at 5%...margin of error is 5%

So he could be at 10%...or at ZERO...I am sure the 9/11 Truthers and other anti-war kooks will do what they can to help him get to 6%

[Ingtar]

Thank you. My first donation went to DH. When he did not move up at all for so long, my next two went to FDT. I cannot donate much at once, but any bit helps. If Hunter is near or above 5% by the time I can afford to donate again, I’ll probably send one his way this time.

Either of these two would be great, in my opinion. I wish the race were between the two of them.

That would be ideal, I reckon. But Hunter is in the midst of a big push, so stay tuned.

[padre35]

I hope Duncan Hunter makes the cut, seriously.

[fhayek]

I buried Paul.

[West Coast Conservative]

This isn’t another poll. It’s the same CNN one.

[broncobilly]

Hunter and Tancredo will be going bye bye.

Maybe bye bye for the debates, but I am sure they will contiue to be a powerful inflence in the conservative cause.
