Huckabee closes in Florida
Posted: Tuesday, December 18, 2007 1:23 PM by Domenico Montanaro
Filed Under: 2008, Polls
From NBC's Lauren Appelbaum


Huckabee continues to surge in Florida, according to a new poll conducted by Strategic Vision (R) to be released tomorrow. With a margin of error of +/- 5.5%, Giuliani and Huckabee are in close competition for first place with 25% and 21%, respectively. McCain comes in third with 15%, leaving Romney in fourth with 13%. Thompson has 10%, Paul has 4%, and Tancredo has 2%.

These results show a different story from the last Strategic Vision poll conducted in this state, Nov. 7 to 9. Huckabee was fifth in that poll with 9%, while Giuliani had 31%. McCain, Thompson and Romney were statistically tied for second with 13%, 13% and 12%, respectively.

On the Democratic side, Clinton retains her large lead in Florida with 48%, up one point from the previous Strategic Vision poll. Obama is up four points from last month to 31% and Edwards is down two points to 6%. The margin of error for this poll is +/- 6%. The polls for both the Republican and Democratic candidates were conducted December 14 to 16.

1. Florida has zero delegates in the Democratic Primary.Updated at 9:49 AM
Hillary is also leading in Michigan's zero delegates primary.

A win in either of those states will be symbolic at best.

4. Because they jostled in
to destroy the primary system and were tricked into doing so. It would have sealed the establishment inevitability deal before any voter had second thoughts about Hillary. Howard Dean held the line on due process.

7. Dean was enacting
what the law stipulated. This is the fault of the repukes and dinos in Florida so maybe you should investigate before you hold anyone accountable who's not to blame.

6. Both states will have all their delegates restored
as soon as the nominee is apparent. The nominee will control the convention -- not Howard Dean. Whoever it is will not want disunity.
