Hillary and ‘Mare’ Rudy are more well-known and when the kind of older, more conservative people who talk to pollsters respond, they mention the first name that comes to mind.

In the more detailed state polls, though, Hill and the Rudester don’t do quite as well. Just look at that straw poll the other day among GOP base voters where Rudy came in eighth, well behind Ron Paul and Jesus Huckabee.

While it’s true that independents haven’t made up their minds, about 3/4s, from a poll I read a couple of months ago, said they will NOT be voting for a Republican — any Republican.
