National Poll: Giuliani 49% Clinton 43%
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) leads New York Senator Hillary Clinton (D) 49% to 43% in the latest Rasmussen Reports Election 2008 poll. Those results are similar to the 47% to 43% edge Giuliani enjoyed over Clinton a month ago. However, Clinton has gained ground against Arizona Senator John McCain (R). The latest numbers on that race show a pure toss-up, McCain 45% Clinton 44%. In December, McCain enjoyed a 4-point lead over the former First Lady. McCain has also lost ground over the past month to Senator Barack Obama (D) and former Senator John Edwards (D). Both of those Democrats lead McCain at this time. Even the relatively unknown Governor of New Mexico Bill Richardson (D) is within four points of McCain.
