Latest Missouri Matchups Confirm Ohio Poll: The Republicans Are Running Surprisingly Well in Swing States and Edwards Looks Like Most Electable Democrat

    Survey USA has followed up its Ohio poll with one in Missouri and it basically confirms the findings there -- with one twist. In this swing state, Rudy Giuliani is actually leading Hillary Clinton 48-45%, while Fred Thompson loses narrowly to Clinton by the identical 48-45%.
    For the record, Barack Obama, in contrast, beats Giuliani by three points and John Edwards beats him by five.
    The significance? At least in these polls, Clinton is not the strongest Democrat of the major contenders. And, with the Republicans in a funk, Giuliani still beats Clinton.
    The Democrats may all be flocking to the Clinton standard on the basis that she's their most electable candidate. On the basis of the Survey USA polls in Ohio and Missouri, it's Edwards who deserves the mantle.
