In Michigan, McCain Leads Rudy

Bucking a consistent trend in most states towards the former New York City mayor, Republican primary voters in Michigan favor John McCain over Rudy Giuliani for the 2008 G.O.P. nomination, according to a new poll out today.

Meanwhile, former Massachusetts Governor and Matt Blunt favorite Mitt Romney finishes a strong third in the Michigan poll.

MICHIGAN REPUBLICANS
John McCain 30%
Rudy Giuliani 26%
Mitt Romney 21%
Newt Gingrich 16%

A small sample (392) and a large margin of error (5%) make this Michigan race very fluid.

On the Democratic side, no real surprises. Hillary Clinton holds a significant 16-point advantage over Barack Obama.

MICHIGAN DEMOCRATS
Hillary Clinton 45%
Barack Obama 29%
John Edwards 16%
