An interesting poll, since it is only rumored that Rudy Giuliani is looking at the 2012 Presidential race. As I have said, I have seen no “Bat Sign” from Gotham City (New York) that Giuliani is gearing up, besides Rep. Peter King statements and his speaking engagements in New Hampshire.

But, nevertheless, this will create some buzz, that Rudy may be the anti-Romney candidate to face Sarah Palin.

GOP Primary without Rudy Giuliani:

  • Romney 19%
  • Palin 15%
  • Paul 13%
  • Cain 11%
  • Gingrich 11%
  • Bachmann 7%
  • Pawlenty 5%
  • Huntsman 3%
  • Santorum 2%
  • Johnson 2%
  • Roemer 1%
  • Someone else (vol.) 3%
  • None/ No one (vol.) 6%
  • No opinion 2%

GOP Primary without Rudy Giuiani and Sarah Palin:

  • Romney 21%
  • Paul 15%
  • Cain 13%
  • Gingrich 12%
  • Bachmann 9%
  • Pawlenty 5%
  • Huntsman 3%
  • Santorum 3%
  • Johnson 2%
  • Roemer 1%
  • Someone else (vol.) 5%
  • None/ No one (vol.) 9%
  • No opinion 2%

This is a shocking poll with regards to Rudy Giuliani but shows his strength within the GOP. This is not a good poll for Tim Pawlenty and Jon Huntsman who wish to be the anti-Romney candidate. This poll also demonstrates that while Mitt Romney may be the front runner at this time, his strength is WEAK.
