Fred Thompson hasn’t even entered the race for the Republican nomination, and yet he continues to move forward in the polls
From the latest Rasmussen poll:
Thompson, preparing to formally announce his candidacy, leads the pack in the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey with 27% support. That gives him a four-point advantage over former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani who is currently preferred by 23% of Likely Primary Voters. A week ago, it was Thompson 28% and Giuliani 27%. Two weeks ago, they were tied at 24%. Prior to that time, Giuliani had been on top in every weekly Rasmussen Reports poll for five months
Thompson leads Giuliani by 13 percentage points among conservative primary voters while Giuliani leads among moderates.
Obviously, some of Thompson’s luster will fade after he announces, reportedly to happen next week, and the media scrutiny begins, but unless he falls like a stone, this is shaping up to be a race between Fred Thompson and Rudy Giuliani, with Mitt Romney in third, and John McCain languishing in fourth.

We want Law and Order in the White House. Not Rudy in a Tutu.
I’m sorry. You probably want more substantive comments.
