Sen. John Kerry," who recently left the door open to a Presidential bid in 2008, could have problems staying in the U.S. Senate," according to a new Suffolk University poll.
"When voters were asked whether Kerry should run for another six-year term in 2008 or if it is time to give someone else a chance, just 37% indicated that he should seek re-election while 56% said that it was time to give someone else a chance. Among political parties: 76% of Republicans, 62% of Independents, and 39% of registered Democrats said that it was time to give someone else a chance."
Said pollster David Paleologos: "This poll is showing us the early warning signs of a political storm for John Kerry."
In the presidential race, Rudy Giuliani has a 12% lead over former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, 33% to 21%, among likely Republicans and Independents who lean Republican. Sen. John McCain is third with 18%.
On the Democratic side, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads with 32%, followed by John Edwards at 19%, Sen. Barack Obama at 18% and Al Gore at 13%.
I wonder if Kerry is going to be knocked out in the primaries or if the Republicans could come up with someone good enough to run.
Ha, a Republican winning a Senate seat is like a Democrat winning one in Utah.
