Giuliani tops poll of most popular US politicians
Mar 07 10:54 AM US/Eastern Email this story Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani is the most popular politician in the United States, according to a national poll this week testing support for potential candidates in the 2008 presidential race. The survey of some 1,900 voters by the Quinnipiac Polling Institute asked respondents to rate several nationally known politicians on a scale from 0 to 100, with higher numbers reflecting higher regard. Giuliani topped the list, with an average score of 63.5 percent, followed by Democratic Senator Barack Obama, seen as one of his party's rising stars. Obama scored 59.9. In third place was maverick veteran Republican US Senator John McCain at 59.7, followed by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice with a score of 57.1. Former US President Bill Clinton rounded out the top five with a score of 56.1 in the poll by the Hamden Connecticut-based political institute. His wife, US Senator Hillary Clinton, seen as the Democrats' top bet to run for the White House in 2008, came in eighth place, with a score of 50.4. |

wrote in message oups.com... Rudy will be the next prez and the Republicans will continue to control congress. Jigsaw The psychology on this is really undergoing a lot of analysis. I think Giuliani is a strong person and a good potential candidate. But don't overlook Hillary. She is very popular in New York. The Republicans are VERY unpopular now with the left, with the independents, and even with some of their own people. Things can change a lot before election time, but Bush and Cheney have alienated a lot of people. Many of us are tired of seeing Bush's face, tired of being misled, and tired of his arrogance. I caught a bit of news on Fox this morning where Hillary is beating the pants off Rudy in approval ratings. I cant seem to find documentation online for this, but I believe it was in the range of 52% for Hillary, and 39% for Rudy. Maybe someone else can document this. |

Am I the only person here to have thought that Obama should do something about changing his truly unfortunate surname? -- Mr Q. Z. D. Remove luncheonmeat (truncheon) to reply. |
