Rasmussen is a GOP pollster and has apparently been bought and paid for for months now, regularly boosting Bush in the polls from his real 20-30% support to about 40%. That's simply not true. My own informal poll in real life proves that of the 10-20 Republicans I've talked politics with in the past 3-6 months, not a single one of them is at all happy with Bush, so that's disapproval. I would say Bush's real approval rating is about where his approval rating on his "surge" is, 12%. Bush may not even be approved by 40% in Texas now.

Guiliani has a lot of skeletons in his closet, especially from the perspective of a religious right voter. The states where he would be most popular are also states he probably cant win because they will go democrat. Guiliani is a blue state Republican who is pro-choice, pro-gay marriage/rights, lived with a gay guy, multiple divorces, shady business dealings and wrong about Iraq. Plus he's a bald Italian New Yorker. Not exactly heartland "values".

All other prospective Republican candidates, including former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, registered in single digits. Among Democrats, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton holds a huge lead over Illinois Sen. Barack Obama and former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina. Clinton was backed by 43 percent of self-identified Democrats in the poll. Obama took second with 15. Edwards captured 12 percent support with former Vice President Al Gore, who repeatedly says he is not running for office, receiving 11 percent in the poll. No other candidates in the crowded Democratic field received double-digit support.
