      Surging McCain Leads in NH Poll

      (Newser) - John McCain has shot to the top of the GOP field in New Hampshire, with a 31% to 25% lead over Mitt Romney in a new Suffolk University poll. "Many of the Republican candidates have been talking about faith," quipped the lead pollster, “but it looks like John McCain is headed for a religious experience in the Granite State.” Two other surveys confirmed the Arizona senator’s rally, Pollster shows, putting him on par with Romney for the first time.

      Hillary Gets Comfy in Blue Collar

      (Newser) - Women of all stripes like Hillary Clinton, but her most ardent supporters aren’t her high-powered peers, but working-class women. That oft-neglected voting block represents Hillary’s backbone, the Boston Globe reports, admiring the tough resolve she projects and her populist policies. To exploit the edge, Clinton is softening her career-woman persona, with motherhood stories and a woman-targeted “Dishes are Done” phone campaign. More »

      Clinton, Obama Duel Over His Experience

      (Newser) - Clinton and Obama exchanged volleys on the campaign trail yesterday over Obama's foreign policy experience, Reuters reports. After Obama said the years he spent living abroad as a child give him a better perspective on international affairs, Clinton fired back that her experience as senator and first lady better prepares her for the "big, complex international challenges the next president will face."

      Watchdog Won't Monitor Russia Election

      (Newser) - An international election watchdog agency has canceled its mission to monitor Russia’s December vote because its delegation's visa applications “have continuously been denied,” reports the Washington Post. The lack of oversight by the agency, part of the 55-member Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, is expected to heighten concerns about the legitimacy of the elections. More »

      Throw the Bums Out, Says Poll

      (Newser) - Americans are so unhappy with Congress that they've set a polling record. Fifty-three percent of those surveyed in a new poll say most members shouldn’t be re-elected, which might foreshadow a rough 2008 for incumbents, CNN reports. Republicans inspired more anger than Democrats, with 38% and 50%, respectively, saying the party’s members deserve another term. More »

      Hillary Vulnerable in National Poll

      (Newser) - Americans want a Democratic president, a new Wall Street Journal / NBC News poll shows—but they're not as sure they want it to be Hillary Clinton. Though respondents favored a Democrat to replace President Bush, 50% to 35%, Clinton runs in a dead heat with Republican frontrunner Rudy Giuliani. “I just don't totally trust her,” said one 1990s supporter of Bill Clinton.

      (Newser) - Four out of five people worldwide indicated they're ready to make personal lifestyle changes to combat global warming—even those from the worst carbon dioxide spewers, China and the US, according to a BBC poll of 22,000 people. Support was mixed, however, on increasing taxes on coal and oil, though most agreed a price increase would curb their use. More »

      Half of GOP Evangelicals Might Ditch Giuliani: Poll

      (Newser) - 55% of white evangelical Republicans would consider a third-party candidate if the 2008 presidential race comes down to Rudy Giuliani vs. Hillary Clinton, according to a new survey. The GOP frontrunner's views on abortion, gay rights and gun control are too liberal for the tastes of many conservative Christians; evangelicals make up about 34% of Republican and Republican-leaning voters.
