GALLUP POLL NEWS SERVICE >> GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS
Using a "feeling thermometer" to evaluate the major
Republican and Democratic candidates for president in 2008,
a majority of Americans indicate they feel warmly toward
Barack Obama; Rudy Giuliani and John Edwards are rated
nearly as well. Although she has high warm ratings, Hillary
Clinton also has the highest cold ratings, pushing down her
average rating among Americans. However, among Democrats she
is the most well-regarded, ahead of Obama.
"The spread of evil is the symptom of a
vacuum. whenever evil wins, it is only by default: by the
moral failure of those who evade the fact that there can be
no compromise on basic principles."
