Quote:
Republican Rudy Giuliani, shown here campaigning yesterday at the NASCAR Nextel Cup Ford 400 race in Homestead, is the most popular presidential candidate in Florida, with 57 percent of voters willing to consider voting for him, according to a new Mason-Dixon poll.

In a potential matchup with Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton, Giuliani wins 50-43 percent. Republicans Fred Thompson and Mitt Romney also beat her, although their wins are within the margin of error of plus or minus four percentage points.

Clinton is the only candidate, Democrat or Republican, with higher unfavorable than favorable ratings; 45 percent of voters have an unfavorable opinion of her, while 38 percent have a favorable opinion.

The boycott of Florida by the Democratic candidates over the state's renegade early primary could come back to haunt the party, according to the poll. Statewide, 26% of independent voters and 33% of undecided voters said they would be less likely to vote for a candidate who shunned Florida before the Jan. 29 primary.

this early i really don't think you can trust the polls, i really don't think anyone will remember if the candidate visited a year before the election, but maybe thats cause im from california and we are always shunned. also am i totally wrong in finding the name of that poll suspect?

I think this election is pretty much a Dem lock. It may be close, but a Democrat will win barring any cheating/manipulation by the Reps. People are sick of Bush, and all those connected to him. Giuliani is connected to Bush it alienates alot of people, and has so many personal issues I think most hard line conservatives would vote for a Pat Buchanan type candidate. Right now there isn't one, but anything could happen.

Clinton vs. Giuliani might be a horse race.

Obama vs. Giuliani would go Obama.

Though Huckabee is jumping in the polls. I really hope he wins the nomination. It's a long shot, but he could never win a national election, and I'm fine with that.
