Rudy 33% McCain 19% Thompson 16% Romney 11% Huckabee 9% in Latest Washington Post - ABC News National GOP Poll (Note: See my question at the bottom).
Republican Presidential hopeful, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, center (above), leaves a news conference in Washington, Friday, Nov. 2, 2007,with Sen. Kit Bond, R-Mo., rear, and Sen. Norm Coleman, R-Minn., left, after the announcement of Sen. Bond’s endorsement of Giuliani for President. Sen. Coleman endorsed Giuliani on Thursday.
Senator John McCain has returned to second place with Rudy Giuliani continuing to lead the GOP Field in the latest Washington Post - ABC News National GOP Poll.
The poll gives Rudy a double digit lead over John McCain who has limited his campaign to Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. Fred Thompson’s campaign continues to collapse while Mike Huckabee is now threatening Mitt Romney’s fourth place.
In the general election portion of the poll, Rudy Giuliani does the best of any GOP candidate, trailing Hillary Clinton by only 4 percentage points - well within competitive striking distance.
Steve Maloney says: I have endorsed a ticket of Rudy Giuliani - Sarah Palin. I also have tremendous regard for John McCain, and I've written several favorable pieces about Mike Huckabee. I am asking both Mayor Giuliani and Senator McCain to step up to the plate and endorse the candidacy of William Russell against John Murtha.
COULD THIS MEAN THE REPUBLICAN RACE COULD COME DOWN TO A BATTLE BETWEEN TWO FRIENDS, JOHN MCCAIN AND RUDY GIULIANI? I'D REGARD THAT AS A TERRIFIC SCENARIO, BECAUSE EITHER MAN WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT PRESIDENT OF THE US.

I appreciate the kind words re: McCain. I think the recent ARG poll actually had McCain closer to Clinton head-to-head but it was within the margin of error so why quibble.
Come on over from the dark side and support John McCain...you know you want to...LOL
Regards.
Brad: Here McCain spent five-and-a-half years being abused by the North Vietnames and now you want to put him in a situation where he'd have to think every single day about the machinations of Hillary Clinton? Hasn't the poor man suffered enough? One thing that keeps me in the Giuliani camp is that the urban liberals despise him with an intensity once reserved only for Richard Nixon. A whole new industry has arisen to breathlessly tell us things about Giuliani that most of us have known for a decade or so. Why has the far-left been so quick to move away from 24X7 vilification of Cheney and Bush? There's a new donkey in town -- Rudy -- and the fever swamp dwellers of the Left can't wait to pin the tail on him. If McCain surges to the top, they will forget about Rudy and pounce away on John. Won't it all be great fun after the nominees are chosen?

Brad, I'm going to put up a McCain poster to further confuse people who don't like me anyway. I'm sure John Murtha is ranting away in DC, plotting my demise. I must be doing something right.
