Poll: Rudy up by 14, Hillary by 29
We don't know much about San Diego-based Datamar Inc, except that last time it polled FL it found John Edwards leading the Democratic field. Hmmmm. Well, here's what Datamar found in its 11/16-21 Florida poll:
Hillary Clinton 48%; Barack Obama 19%; John Edwards 13.2%; Bill Richardson 5.2%; Joe Biden 4.7%; Dennis Kucinich 4.1%; undecided 7%
R's: Rudy Giuliani 28.8; Mitt Romney 15.3%; Fred Thompson 13.9%; John McCain 10.4%; Mike Huckabee 6.9%; Ron Paul 4%; undecided 18.8%

Rudy up by 24???
I'll admit, I was educated in Florida government schools so I may be wrong, but i don't think 28.8-15.3=24...
Perhaps a private school grad could weigh in and confirm my math...

Hey there 11:06.
I was taught addition & subtraction at Pinecrest in Miami (but had one year at Tampa Catholic if that validates your question!)
My math says the difference between Rudy with 28.8 and Mitt at 15.3 is %13.5 percent NOT 24.
And that's (now) before the Mitt-mentum kicks in before the first 6 primaries!

I wondered that too...but far be it for me to question the press- one would assume they had all the answers

Everything else about Judy Riuliani has been inflated, why not poll numbers!

Hey 11:46, that transgenderification (don't misunderestimate my dyslexicon) of Rudy is pretty hysterical!
Identify yourself!

Bob - that was just fabulous. I've always wanted a president who says things like "Give her a five second frencher" and dresses like a drag queen at the Parliament House (Orlando, FL) during open mic night. So this year my choice is: Man-hating lesbian Democrat vs. cross-dressing Republican? Oy ve, I have such a headache.

Florida is the first primary state that reflects a true cross section of the country, so Iowa and N. H. don't translate into squat in the sunshine state. You will see this soon enough on the 29th of January.
Rudy rolls in Florida and on and on to Minn!!!
