Show Rudy Where It Hurts, NJ Edition

Though most polls show Rudy Giuliani with a steady, though dwindling, lead over Hillary Clinton in New Jersey, Rudy's successor could put a real dent in that lead should he decide to jump in.

In a race between just Giuliani and Clinton, Rudy tops Hillary 47-44 (down from 49-40 in April) . But if Mike Bloomberg jumps into the race Rudy and Hillary tie at 36%, with Bloomy taking 18% of the vote.

"Sen. Hillary Clinton is growing stronger in New Jersey, and now trails former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani by just three percent in a head to head matchup, compared with nine points in the last poll. And if Mayor Michael Bloomberg runs as an independent, he takes more votes from Giuliani, making the three-way race too close to call," said Clay F. Richards, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
