In the Latest National Rasmussen Poll, The Real News Is the Growing Strength of Romney

    Rasmussen is out with another national match-up today and while John McCain, again, continues to be the only Republican to run ahead of Hillary, the real news is that Romney now only trails Clinton by 5% -- 47%-42%.
    This continues an upwards trajectory for Romney in matchups against Clinton and means that in Rasmussen's polls at least, Giuliani currently runs no more strongly against the Democratic front-runner than Romney  does.
    Electability is one of the major calling cards of the Giuliani candidacy. If you're a traditional Republican voter with some doubts about Rudy and Romney looks just as electable, why not go with him? Or even with Huckabee, who only trails Clinton by 3% nationally in the latest Rasmussen poll.
