Giuliani Notes: South Carolina – Rudy Takes the Lead
Poll puts Giuliani, Clinton in lead in SC
A new poll has some good news for Rudy Giuliani and Hillary Clinton in South Carolina.
The SCIndex has Giuiliani leading among likely Republican voters, with 29 percent, followed by John McCain at 16 percent and Mitt Romney with eight percent.
Giuliani’s current lead is built primarily on support from women. Thirty-seven percent of all female Republican presidential primary voters indicate that they support the former New York Mayor. Fifteen percent of women who plan to vote in the Republican presidential primary support John McCain. McCain and Giuliani split support among male voters with each candidate getting 20 percent of their vote.
 The NUTS:
Rudy – 29%
McCain – 16%
Romney – 8 %
In this supposedly very socially conservative GOP state, Rudy continues to poll well. And especially with women.
Might you suppose his pro-choice position on abortion is more mainstream in the GOP than some social conservatives admit?
Mitt Romney who has flip-flopped on the abortion issue continues below double digits.
