I think this may be an outlier but Rasmussen has Obama losing to Rudy by double digits
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/giuliani_regains_double_digit_lead_over_obama

After several months of only narrow or moderate leads over Democratic Senator Barack Obama, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani has surged to a 12-point lead over the man from Illinois. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone poss finds Giuliani with 51% of the vote to 39% for Obama.

That’s the biggest lead for Giuliani over the charismatic Democrat since December. Last month, Giuliani’s advantage was down to a single percentage point, 45% to 44%.

The new survey also shows Senator Obama continuing to lead former Republican Senator Fred Thompson. It's now Obama 47%, Thompson 44%. However, Thompson has gained a lot of ground in recent months. In May, Obama led Thompson by seven points. In March, his lead was 12 points.

Giuliani has been the Republican frontrunner throughout Election 2008. Thompson recently took the first formal steps towards an official campaign and moved into second place in the race for the GOP nomination.

3. Winning over "Uncle Bubba'" is easy
Beating Guilliani is hard work.Throw out your personal
views and knowlege of Guilliani. The people who are
responding in these polls do not have this information.

I believe if we stopped everything and took a real vote
today Gilliani would be President.

He is the marketers' dream candidate. Outsider, Has a
Prescense, air of authority, engaging smile appears
to talk straight. Short Direct semtamces . Commands
attention by his presence. In Debates able to make
\himself stand out among 10 candidates.

Fred Thompson(I call Uncle Bubba) will outBush Bush.
If you listen to his speeches you will get my drift.
People are tired of Bush. He has McCain's problem--seems
old. Is going to try to sell you a "pig in a poke".


Yes, I am Liberal Democrat and proud to be one. I simply
believe in honestly sizing up the enemy so I know how
to make a plan to win.
