Rudy Still Roasting?

Apparently so says a just released LATimes/Bloomberg poll:

The new numbers -- 17% for Huckabee and 23% for Giuliani -- show a steep slide by the former New York mayor since October's poll (when he had 32%) and a more than doubling of Huckabee support from 7% back then. This could mean the conservative religious vote, variously estimated at 20% to 40% of the Iowa caucuses, appears to be congregating around the genial Arkansan, who until now has lagged in fundraising. Such encouraging results may help donations now.

And the Dems? Better news for Hillary than recent polls:

In the Democratic race, the new Times poll numbers show that despite numerous attacks and Iowa state polls revealing a tight race there among Hillary Clinton, John Edwards and Barack Obama, Clinton remains the solid national frontrunner. Clinton's national support among Democrats is 45%, down slightly from October's 48% but still more than twice that of Obama at 21% (who rose slightly from 17%) and four times Edwards' 11%, which is four points under Undecideds. . . . The Democrats' margin of error is plus or minus 4%; the GOP margin is plus or minus 5%. The poll of 529 Democrats and 428 Republicans was conducted Nov. 30-Dec. 3.

To use seasonal jargon, it appears, as Jeralyn points out Rudy is roasting over an open fire of corruption.

    is that supposed to make me feel better? (none / 0) (#1)

    of the three (huckabee, giuliani, romney), i am at a loss as to the lesser of the evils, although huckabee seems to be the bigger nutjob. i suppose, should fred thompson ever rise from his sarcophogus, he might realize that, by comparison, he comes across as nearly as normal as it's possible for any republican to be, and stake a claim.

    i'm going for a supply of garlic strands and holy water.
