A McCain vs. Clinton race looks very likely now, after McCain won SC and Clinton won NV. California will most likely go to both of them. I think Giuliani won´t be a factor on Supertuesday anymore. Therefore I think we should change upcoming General Election polls from the current Giuliani vs. Clinton to McCain vs. Clinton, mostly because Rasmussen won´t even bother anymore to include Giuliani in his polls.

What´s your opinion ? And could Dave jump in again ?

I vote other but only because the option I prefer isn't represented.  As I've been saying for the past couple of days, we should just be patient and wait for a Republican front runner to emerge before we enter any more GE polls.  Its stupid to continue entering Giuliani as it has become abundantly clear he won't win the nomination.  However, it would be equally foolish to enter the current three front runners as none of them have really clinched the nomination.  I know it must be hard for you poll obsessed people to even contemplate the idea of going a few weeks (or even a few months *gasp*) without your precious polls but I think its for the best.  Once we have clear nominees you can go back and enter them with the appropriate nominees.  It just makes no sense to continue entering polls when we haven't the slightest inkling who the nominees will be.

Wait till after Florida before writing Giuliani off. Then, if he loses there, go to McCain v. Clinton, because that is what we'll have in the general.

We may as well keep it the way it is until Super Tuesday, there's really on point in changing it at the moment, since for all we know Rudy could have a massive comeback, or Hillary could falter.
