Thompson Takes The Lead

In news that is stunning to literally no one (except maybe the 1 or 2 percent who are pulling for Ron Paul), Former Senator Fred Thompson has pulled ahead of Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani in the latest Rasmussen polls, leading 28% to 27%. Although caution should be taken with such a narrow lead, it is telling that Thompson can pull ahead of Giuliani at all, considering he hasn’t even officially announced yet. Filling out the top four are McCain and Romney with 10% each, both of who should probably just pack it in at this point.
