Life on Florida’s West Coast

McCain Ahead of Giuliani in Florida?

Rudy Giuliani is banking in a big way on Florida. He hopes to win the primary here in order to put himself in a position to stay in the race for the Republican party’s Presidential nomination.

The bad news for Rudy is that although he was leading in Florida polls just before Christmas, a new Quinnipiac University poll says Sen. John McCain now has a lead. McCain has 22 percent of the likely votes, but in all actuality the margin or error really puts McCain and Giuliani too close to call. At least, that’s the way I see things. Past state primaries have shown us that the polls are not as accurate as we might hope.

Remember that 4.6 margin of error and then consider that the polls gives McCain 22 percent, Giuliani 20 percent, and Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee 19 percent each. Now, tell me who is ahead? It’s impossible, right? At this point, I would say it is anyone’s race.

On the Democratic side, Clinton shows a 52 – 31 percent lead over Obama. Of course, one must remember that when I say Clinton I do not necessarily mean Hillary, since it sure looks like Bill thinks he is the one running. That man needs to sit down and let his wife run her own race.

this is how the Clinton’s have always run things. Bill wins the election , Hillary runs the country. Only difference is this time Hillary gets to sit behind the desk.
