Poll finds Republican voters want Rick Perry and Jeb Bush to stay home

While former Mayor Rudy Giuliani of New York City continues to hint at a second shot at the Republican presidential nomination, he can take some comfort in the results of a poll conducted by Opinion Research Corp. that showed him leading the Republican pack by the skin of his teeth.

Giuliani topped the poll with 16 percent, followed by former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts with 15 percent. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin took third with 13 percent, with U.S. Rep. Ron Paul of Texas at her heels with 12 percent. Businessman Herman Cain, a favorite of the tea party movement, placed fifth with 10 percent.

1. He was ahead in 2008

if I remember correctly. It was nearly a given that he would be the nominee. The prevailing wisdom of the time said it was going to be Giuliani v. Clinton.

But Giuliani never could get past the fundies and while McCain managed to appease them enough to get the nomination.

I don't see it playing out any differently this time around for Giuliani.

2. He's still mapping out his Florida strategy.

Poor Judy.
