Latest Republican Candidate Polls Suggest that Giuliani's Lead is Fading Fast

From his moderate social views to his poor performance at the debates, Rudy Giuliani no longer seems like a shoe-in as the republican nominee.

Ferndale, WA (PRWEB) May 6, 2007 -- The mighty lead Giuliani once had is slipping. Only a couple of months ago, McCain was looking old and tired, Romney's religious affiliation made him seem un-electable and the lack of visibility of the rest of the candidates put them into the cellar with single digits. But USAElectionPolls.com observes Giuliani to be fading fast.

Now the polls are suggesting things are changing. Despite leading the polls in 19 states, USAElectionPolls.com says that Giuliani's biggest obstacle is still how he relates with the conservative base. He is losing to McCain in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. Three of the four states that will hold caucuses/primaries before the so-called "National Primary" on February 5, 2008.

Third place finishes in Iowa and New Hampshire will not end the Giuliani campaign but it will end the perception that Giuliani is unbeatable

"If McCain sweeps or wins 3 of the first 4 states, the Arizona senator will be the favorite to get the nomination," says the authors at PresidentPolls2008.com.

Another hit to Giuliani was his poor performance at the GOP debate coupled with Romney's strong performance. "Looking like he was floundering on the issue of abortion does not help Giuliani's campaign," says USAElectionPolls.com. According to the web site, he is not going to win the conservative base with his views as it is so he needs to be strong and firm when delivering his stance so as to not alienate the more moderate voters.

Romney looked the most presidential in appearance and delivery and stands to gain the most in the polls. This is going to be a major blow to Giuliani as Romney already leads him in New Hampshire and is gaining on him in Iowa.

"Third place finishes in Iowa and New Hampshire will not end the Giuliani campaign but it will end the perception that Giuliani is unbeatable," says USAElectionPolls.com. And that sets McCain and Romney up perfectly to sneak in and win the republican nomination.
