Presidential race match-ups mean little at this early stage, but they do mean something. Zogby’s latest match-up poll of the top three GOP contenders (Guiliani, McCain, and Romney — in that order)vs. the top 3 Democratic contenders (Clinton, Obama, and Edwards — in that order) is interesting:
|
Giuliani 47%, Clinton 40% |
Giuliani 40%, Obama 46% |
Giuliani 46%, Edwards 40% |
|
McCain 47%, Clinton 39% |
McCain 40%, Obama 44% |
McCain 47%, Edwards 38% |
|
Romney 35%, Clinton 45% |
Romney 29%, Obama 51% |
Romney 32%, Edwards 47% |
Things to note, assuming the election were held today:
(1) Romney would lose to any Democratic candidate.
(2) No GOP candidate can beat Obama.
Barack’s gotta be loving this poll.
