Decision 2008: Presidential Power Rankings #36

Republicans:

1st: Rudy Giuliani (falling) his numbers now in early states are slipping and his lead nationally is slipping fat with McCain and Thompson gaining on him. We may see a new frontrunner soon.

2nd: Mitt Romney (steady) Still leading in Iowa and NH, he holds a good shot at becoming the nominee. Romney's Ames Straw Poll bounce has died though and with his poor national numbers he could miss out of the nomination.

3rd Tied: Fred Thompson (steady) His announcement bounce has finally died out and he is back to his old numbers. He has poor numbers in Iowa and NH, but comes in 2nd in most polls nationally and leads in South Carolina.

3rd Tied: John McCain (rising) Everyone must agree McCain has been experiencing a modest bounce in polls since his great appearence in the FOX News debate 2 weeks ago. He is tied nationally for 2nd in several polls and comes in close 3rds and 1 2nd in polls in NH and South Carolina. Dont count McCain out yet.

5th: Mike Huckabee (steady) His bounce has also ended since Ames and is starting to struggle again. If Next does jump in he could be in some serious trouble.

Democrats:

1st: Hillary Clinton (rising) Clinton now is seen as the one to beat out of the whole presidential race. Everyone is aiming at her and she could benefit from this. Democrats seem to be backing her more and more. She may have the nomination locked up soon.

2nd: Barack Obama (falling) Obama continues to fall in national polls and his lead in South Carolina is gone. Obama may just be getting his name out there for another run in 2012 or '16.

3rd: John Edwards. (falling) Edwards has lost his must win state lead in Iowa to Hillary. His support is also falling nationally. His only hope is Iowa.

4th: Bill Richardson (falling) Richardson remains about the same as last time we posted there, but his debate opinions and many other things have gotten him into trouble.

5th: Joe Biden (steady) Biden continues to campaign hard and doesn't look to quit for awhile eventhough he is just getting worse and worse in polls
