John McCain may be receiving forgiveness from the right. In a straw poll taken in South Carolina (the end point of his last campaign), he has pulled even with Rudy Giuliani and Duncan Hunter. The early numbers indicated Giuliani in first, Hunter in second and McCain a distant third. But this morning the numbers have been heavily in McCain’s favor. Considering the fallout that occurred in 2000, this is a promising showing for him, especially in a conservative stronghold like the South. If he stops associating with Liberals on legislation, he may have a chance. Otherwise look for a surge by Giuliani and possibly Hunter. If Newt Gingrich decides to run (and he better do it soon if wants a shot), he would give Giuliani a run for his money. Gingrich polls well even though he hasn’t announced. With many States moving their Presidential Primaries to February, this race may over by late this year.
