New NBC/WSJ Georgia Poll!! - Hillary(34%, -6), Obama(27%, +0), Edwards(12%)

[Dawgs]

From NBC's Lauren Appelbaum and Domenico Montanaro
Huckabee leads and Thompson's support is virtually cut in half in the Feb. 5 state of Georgia, a new Strategic Vision poll (R) to be released tomorrow will show.

Huckabee grabs the top spot with 23%, up from just 5% from the same poll conducted in October. Thompson polls at 20%, down from 39%. Giuliani receives 17%, down from 20%. Like Huckabee, both McCain and Romney have risen in the polls, but not nearly as much as the former Arkansas governor. McCain is now polling at 11%, up slightly from 9%, and Romney receives 10%, up from 6%.

This poll was conducted December 7-9; 515 Republican voters were interviewed, and the margin of error for this poll is 5%.

Clinton retains lead, but Obama pulls within single digits
On the Democratic side, Clinton has lost six points but still leads, with 34%. Obama's polling remains unchanged at 27%. Edwards received 12%. 468 Democratic voters were interviewed and also has a margin of error of 5.5%.

8. He prob wont even win his home state

Or win it in the general if nominated.

16. The fact that Edwards polls third

in Georgia among Democratic voters doesn't really say much about how he would poll in a general election against the Repugs. A poll of how Edwards, Obama, and Clinton do in head-to-heads against some of the Repugs among Georgia voters would be much more informative regarding Edwards's strength in the state.

11. Woo hoo! Georgia in play, big time.

I wonder how far the field will be "winnowed out" by the time we actually vote on Feb.

[Dawgs]

13. Georgia is in play too. Awesome.

17. The Poll Was Conducted By Strategic Vision (R)

Wny should I trust a Republican polling firm?

We already know they're incompetent...How do we know they aren't corrupt as well?
