POLL: Rasmussen GOP New Hampshire Primary

Additional results from the recent Rasmussen Reports automated survey of 628 likely Republican primary voters in New Hampshire (conducted 11/5) finds former Gov. Mitt Romney (at 32%) leading former Mayor Rudy Giuliani (17%) and Sen. John McCain (16%) in a statewide primary; former Gov. Mike Huckabee trails at 10%, former Sen. Fred Thompson at 7%. All other candidates receive less than five percent each.

POLL: Zogby GOP Iowa Caucus

A Note:
Hillary is a front-runner. Big national lead, small leads in Iowa and NH, but still leads.
Guliani is not much of a front-runner. Small national lead, and getting outright HAMMERED in Iowa and NH.

1. Good, he's a sick man and the poor old bastard
has looked from the very beginning like he's hoping for a poor showing in the first few primaries so he can duck out decently and without incurring his wife's wrath.

His heart just isn't in it and it shows.

2. No one wants a lazy corpse as president

6. Couldn't work out why people thought he'd do well in the first place
Was it just the pundits effectively saying "you'd have to be stupid to support Fred Thompson - but Republicans are stupid, so ..." ?
