The latest American Research Group shows John McCain with a slight edge over Rudy Giuliani in South Carolina, 23 to 22 respectively. Fred Thompson is following closely behind with 19%.
Although a statistical dead heat between John McCain and Rudy Giuliani, this is good news for a campaign that has had nothing but bad news over the past week with respect to poor fundraising, cutting of staff, and speculation that the Arizona senator would withdraw from the race.
According to USAElectionPolls.com, McCain is still a strong and formidable candidate. They stress his lead in South Carolina as one such issue. The website also points out that he is ahead of Giuliani in the state of New Hampshire as well.
