(Rasmussen) Daily Tracking - Huck 20, Rudy 17
Rasmussen Reports ^ | 12/5/2007 | Rasmussen Reports

Posted on 12/05/2007 8:08:46 AM PST by No.6

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows a new national leader in the race for the Republican Presidential Nomination. While enjoying an amazing surge, Mike Huckabee has earned support from 20% of Likely Republican Primary Voters nationwide. Three points back, at 17%, is Rudy Giuliani. That’s the lowest level of support ever recorded for Giuliani in the tracking poll and represents a seven-point decline over the past week. Huckabee has gained eight points during the same time frame (see recent daily numbers).

Glad to see Rudy falling. Not glad that Fred also continues to slide.

It looks like Fred has dropped from yesterday and Huck has continued to climb. Not good.

It's a move within the margin of error but if it doesn't snap back in the next few days I'd get concerned.

The Huck has yet to get the thorough vetting that front runners get, once that happens he’ll be going away.

It started on Good Morning America this morning.

However, there was much fawning from the Friends on Fox.

It’s time to pull our troops out of Iraq, Afghanistan and the entire ME.
It appears that Huck or the UnAmerican Democrat Party will be in the WH.

If a wartime President is not going to be elected, and we let the Gitmo terrorists go, and cannot interrogate fully, as insisted on by Huck and Hill, then our guys will be in extreme danger over there.

Pray for a pull-out, soon!

I think F&F brought up the parole story that GMA concentrated on.

The Huckabee surge is a revolt by social conservatives revolted by the thought of Giuliani getting the nominaton.

Now, it's up to Fred Thompson to create a backlash of support by conservatives fed up with the other RINO contenders. With Giuliani and Romney in free fall, the door is open for Fred to do just that.

Huckabee is a recent phenomenon and, with the ebb and flow we have seen in this race, I don’t agree that it is apparent he will be our nominee. We still have a race.

Huckabee’s gaffes of yesterday and the day before haven’t spread through the net yet, and they will.

Guilliani is NOT done. His strategy is very powerful and well funded. He CAN take the nomination on the strength of California, NY and FL delegates. The “South” will not include Florida because of the former NYers there. If he wins those three huge state’s delegate arrays he is very hard to stop.

Stay on the attack against Guilliani.

I like these poll numbers better.

Free Republic Opinion Poll: (12/4) Rasmussen today lists Giuliani and Huckabee tied at 18% each, closely followed by McCain with 14%, Thompson with 13% and Romney at 12%. If the GOP primary were held today and these were your choices, which one would you choose?

Composite Opinion
Thompson 65.7% 1,011
Giuliani 11.4% 176
Huckabee 10.3% 159
Romney 10.1% 156
McCain 2.4% 37
99.9% 1,539
Member Opinion
Thompson 73.1% 615
Romney 9.8% 82
Huckabee 8.1% 68
Giuliani 7.6% 64
McCain 1.4% 12
100.0% 841
Non-Member Opinion
Thompson 56.7% 396
Giuliani 16.0% 112

The polls are so laggard and valueless. This is a primary election not a national election.

The primaries will drive the outcome outward to the nation. Not the other way.
This election will rock and roll harder than any in memory for most.

Each primary will have a big impact on the national polls. Watch because it’s going to be a roller coaster.

Very concerned about Fred. He need to gain traction. Yesterday I think Michael “The Man of Steel” made some remarks about the candidates.

In passing he said Fred is flatlining. I’m afraid he may right.

What in the world are some so-called GOPers possibly thinking?

We apparently have a large number of RINOs in the GOP.

Man I wish, but where is Fred? Is he in Iowa, NH? I’m not hearing it and he should be there hitting the trail hard.

The time for the unconventional campaign is over.

Mr. Huckabee is not a conservative, he’s a POPULIST.

Cut the profanity, please.

It looks like McVain is ready to drive a truck right through to the top. Un-effing-believable.

I hope so...and I hope even more that the lost support goes to Fred and not Mitt.

Too many evangelical voters worship the ground of Dobson and have tunnel vision when choosing a candidate.

Sorry, but it’s true. Our NATION is at stake and people are voting for a guy because he talks about Jesus and smiles a lot...
