Hillary versus Giuliani?
It's still incredibly fucking early in the presidential races, but the numbers are already giving us a preview of 2008. If they hold up (which they may), then it'll be Clinton and Giuliani, the two New York Giants, going head to head for the White House. If that does happen, I'm not sure Clinton will be able to beat Giuliani, particularly because he's so moderate and because the Krazy Khristians fucking hate Hillary.
Still, says the Washington Post, Obama's made incredible strides:
On the January weekend when she announced her candidacy, Clinton led the Democratic field with 41 percent. Obama was second at 17 percent, Edwards was third at 11 percent and former vice president Al Gore, who has said he has no plans to run, was fourth at 10 percent.
The latest poll put Clinton at 36 percent, Obama at 24 percent, Gore at 14 percent and Edwards at 12 percent. None of the other Democrats running received more than 3 percent. With Gore removed from the field, Clinton would gain ground on Obama, leading the Illinois senator 43 percent to 27 percent.
And since Gore ain't runnin', it's more like 43-27, but Obama's shown he can make up ground, though, so I think the real battle is going to be for the Democratic nomination, since McCain isn't doing anything but alienating moderates and Christian conservatives alike.
I'm already willing to bet that Giuliani's going to be our next president, which, honestly, ain't that bad. He'll certainly be a mountain of improvement over our little retarded Shrub.
