Senator Craig May Resign

Pollspot: Michigan State
Michigan:
According to a new EPIC-MRA poll, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads the Democrats in Michigan with 40%, followed by Sen. Barack Obama at 21% and John Edwards at 16% percent.
On the Republican side, former Gov. Mitt Romney leads with 25%, edging out former Mayor Rudy Giuliani with 23%. Former Sen. Fred Thompson is in third with 16% and Sen. John McCain trails with 15%.
It's a little surprising to me that Mitt Romney is polling slightly better than Rudy Giuliani.

Pollspot: The First Primary State
Meanwhile, "in the Republican race, ARG gives Romney 27 percent of the likely primary vote, Rudy Giuliani 23 percent and John McCain 12 percent. Fred Thompson slipped to 8 percent, falling behind the biggest gainer, Mike Huckabee, at 9 percent, up from just 1 percent in July." Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani aren't too far apart.

Pollspot: Iowa...Yet Again
Iowa:
In Iowa, a new Time magazine poll shows John Edwards leading the Democratic presidential race with 32%, followed by Sen. Hillary Clinton at 24%, Sen. Barack Obama at 22% and Gov. Bill Richardson at 13%. Complete poll results are available.
John Edward's efforts of focusing mainly on Iowa may be working but I still predict that Hillary Clinton will win Iowa come January. Bill Richardson rises a little.
Elizabeth Edwards Defends Hillary

"I do not think the hatred against Hillary Clinton is justified. I don’t know where it comes from. I don’t begin to understand. But you can’t pretend it doesn’t exist, and it will energize the Republican base. Their nominee won’t energize them, Bush won’t energize them, but Hillary as the nominee will."

Senator Craig Pleads Guilty of Sexual Misconduct
Republican Senator Larry Craig from Idaho pleaded guilty to charges brought upon him for lewd conduct in a men's bathroom in an airport. A government watchdog group filed an ethics complaint on Tuesday after the Senator's plea, which would allow for further investigation into his actions and quite possibly causing his Senate career to come to an end. Senator Craig, who has served three terms, is looking ahead to re-election in 2008. However, with all the negative attention his plea has brought to the general public, his future in politics may not be looking so bright. For the full story, click here.
