How Giuliani Fell From Lead to Also-Ran Among Republicans I am not sure why he thought NY would play outside of NY. Plus, he's not such a great speaker.

New PPP poll for New York state: "On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton leads Barack Obama 45-33. Former candidate John Edwards was at 10%. Most recent polling had shown Clinton with over 50% in the state, so this is an indication that Obama is gaining a little bit on her. Most striking is that Obama trails by only 12 points despite earning the support of only 44% of African American voters in the state. “Barack Obama has a lot of room to improve his black support in the state,” said Debnam. “If he can do that and also pick up a majority of former Edwards supporters who might be attracted to his message of hope, he has a decent chance of making this primary much more competitive than it was expected to be.” Public Policy Polling will do another survey in New York before next Tuesday’s primary to gauge the impact of Giuliani and Edwards dropping out of the race on the state’s results. PPP surveyed 837 likely Democratic primary voters and 1,125 likely Republican primary voters on January 29th. The survey’s margin of errors are +/- 3.4% and +/- 2.9% respectively. Other factors, such as refusal to be interviewed and weighting, may introduce additional error that is more difficult to quantify." pollster.com
