It's silly to ascribe to ALL pollsters some "fear" of Fred or any other candidate. They all show the same three facts:

1) Rudy is way ahead nationally, anywhere from 6-12 points in most polls;

2) In the primary states, 3 of the first 4 show a clear Mitt victory; SC up in the air; then after that, Rudy is leading pretty substantially in most of the next wave of primaries.

3) and McCain, in all the SurveyUSA polls, LEADS all Republicans in head-to-head polls vs. Hillary (although Rudy still beats her, only not quite as much as McCain), and Mitt isn't close to beating her.

Both those options leave me nauceous. I could never, ever vote for SantuaryRudy or McAmnesty. I am deeply saddened that the GOP base thinks they're ok (if that's truly the case).
