Quote:

"Romney's win in Michigan will probably cut into McCain's lead," pollster John Zogby said. McCain's advantage had been shrinking during the first days of polling and already was down from an initial double-digits, he said.

Giuliani, whose one-time lead in national opinion polls has vanished, bypassed the early voting states to concentrate on the January 29 Florida primary and the February 5 "Super Tuesday" round of 22 contests.

But Romney's win in Michigan was good news for Giuliani, ensuring the race would not have a dominant figure at the top of the field before he can get in the game.
