Election 2008: Clinton vs. Giuliani & Thompson
Surging Clinton Outpaces Giuliani and Thompson
Thursday, September 27, 2007

Senator Hillary Clinton now enjoys a five-point lead over Mayor Rudy Giuliani in the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. It’s Clinton 48% and Giuliani 43%. The former First Lady also leads former Senator Fred Thompson 48% to 41%.

Both match-ups represent gains for the Democratic frontrunner. But the more modest lead, over Giuliani, is also the more dramatic news.

Two weeks ago, Clinton held a statistically insignificant one-point lead over Giuliani. Prior to that, Clinton had held an advantage over Giuliani only once in fourteen consecutive Rasmussen Reports polls.

1. Rudy is toast! Amerikuns are figuring him who he is.

2. Stealing distance for the GOP

Not good news in my book

6. Really? so going from a 1 pt deficit to a 5 pt lead is bad news?

[rinsd]

3. That is Hillary's biggest lead over Rudy in Ras all year!

The way the Republicans are going most of the Democrats in the field will be beating them in head to heads!

Richardson is within in striking distance of Rudy and edges out Grandpa Fred now.

Thanks for posting jeff_dem

7. Hillary Will Be Our Next President, But It Will Be Close

The Corporate Whore Media will get the Horserace they're looking for. Hillary will be easily knocked down, so that she doesn't run away with the election, like Gore probably would.

If Al Gore does not enter the race in the next 4 weeks, the Hillary Clinton will be our next president. Unless she stumbles sigificantly, or another candidate suddenly does something brilliant, she's got the nomination. Obama & Edwards will make it interesting for a few weeks, but by February/March, it will be obvious who the winner in our party is. I'd be willing to wager $$$$ on it.

9. I'd like to see polling on Clinton/Obama vs AnyRepublican

That ticket would make history in so many ways.
