Edwards fares best against Republican field, only Dem to beat Ghouliani

[draft_mario_cuomo]

==Yet, in matchups against the top declared Republican candidate, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Clinton and Obama both lose.

Only Edwards beats Giuliani-- 47 percent to 43 percent, based on a June 6-7 survey of likely voters.

Giuliani and former U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson, a Tennessee Republican and star on NBC's "Law and Order," currently are tied in the lead (28-27 percent) in the GOP field, Rasmussen polls show.

Against Thompson, Edwards has a 13-point lead, 51 to 38 percent. Clinton and Obama also beat Thompson, but not as strongly.==

1. Does Edwards beat St. Rudy in New York?

That's what I'm worried about.

Because if the Repugs take New York, that screws everything.

2. 1. Rudy won't be the nominee. 2. He won't win NY. He is getting trounced there by all dems.

3. Bloomberg takes NY.

then we are looking at the House to decide.

6. In the Quinnipiac poll

this past week, the polling for New York state was HRC with 46, Rudy with 27 and Bloomberg 17.....
In all major polling in the last two weeks HRC defeats all right wingers. I do not look so much at the polling but the state polling and there HRC has a huge lead in all states.....
So come and and get on board.....There's a train a comin'
I do thank you

7. I remember back in '04.. Edwards did really well across party lines..

And with so many Independents these days... that's exactly the kind of candidate we're going to have to nominate if we want to WIN.
