Giuliani Notes: South Carolina – Rudy Takes the Lead
Real Clear Politics: New SC Poll
The GOP NUTS:
Rudy 18
McCain 17
Gingrich 17
F. Thompson 13
Romney 8
Huckabee 6
Hunter 3
Brownback 3
Gilmore 1
Paul 1
Undecided 13
Without wanting to put too much stock in any one poll, it’s probably worth pointing out that while Romney has definitely been on an upward trajectory in Iowa and New Hampshire, he ticked down in this poll and overall his support in South Carolina has remained consistently – and somewhat surprisingly – soft.
McCain leads by 5.0% in the freshly updated RCP Average for South Carolina.
South Carolina looks like a two man race between Rudy and McCain. Interesting that Romney remains in single digits in a southern state supposedly sympathetic to his social con views. Obviously, Romney does not play well in the South.
