In the race for the Republican Presidential nomination, former Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson remains nominally on top with support from 26% of Likely Republican Primary voters. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani remains essentially even as the top choice for 24%. Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney and Arizona Senator John McCain are each preferred by 12% (see daily history). Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee is favored by 4%, Kansas Senator Sam Brownback attracts support from 3%, and four other candidates (Ron Paul, Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter, Tommy Thompson, and Sam Brownback) split 2% of the vote. Seventeen percent (17%) are undecided.
Data released today shows that Thompson is the only candidate Republican voters are more likely to see as conservative rather than moderate or liberal.
The latest Rasmussen Reports analysis suggests that Hillary Clinton is the Default Candidate for the Democrats. The biggest danger for the GOP may be that none of the candidates will measure up to the hopes and expectations of the party faithful.
The Rasmussen Reports Election 2008 Presidential Tracking Poll is updated daily, Monday through Friday. New results are posted each day by noon Eastern.
The first Rasmussen Reports general election polling for Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich shows him trailing the GOP frontrunner. Last week, match-up results were released for long-shot Republican hopeful Ron Paul.
While they are trailing in the race for the Democratic nomination, both Obama and Edwards have opened larger leads over the Republican frontrunners in general election match-ups. New data matching Clinton against Giuliani and Thompson will be released later this week. See summary of general election match-ups and other data for all Democratic and Republican Presidential candidates.
Americans are divided on the question of whether the next President should meet with the leaders of nations such as Syria, Iraq, and North Korea. Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama addressed that topic in different ways during the last debate but public awareness of the distinction is fairly modest. That is probably due to limited public interest in the debates--just 15% of Americans find the debates exciting while 58% say they are boring.

Daily tracking results are from survey interviews conducted over four days ending last night. Each update includes approximately 750-800 Likely Democratic Primary Voters and 600-650 Likely Republican Primary Voters. Margin of sampling error for each is +/- 4 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence.
General election match-ups, favorability ratings, and ideological perceptions are regularly updated for all Republican and Democratic Presidential candidates. Also, favorability rating are updated regularly key Members of Congress, Journalists and Other Political Figures.
