From the Savannah Morning News:
Presidential hopeful Fred Thompson has soared to a nearly 2-to-1 lead over his closest Republican rival in the latest statewide poll.
In survey results announced Wednesday by Strategic Vision, the former U.S. senator from Tennessee led Rudy Giuliani, 39 percent to 20 percent.
Thompson added 4 percentage points to the advantage he enjoyed over the former New York mayor in a Strategic Vision poll taken last month.
All the other Republican candidates are in single digits.
Meanwhile, U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton of New York widened her lead over U.S. Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois in the Democratic campaign.
Clinton led Obama, 40 percent to 27 percent.
Former North Carolina senator John Edwards was a distant third at 11 percent. No other Democrat had more than 5 percent.
We may be backwoods in Georgia, but we ain’t stupid. Go Fred!
