Lagging 2008 presidential candidates pulled out poll data on Thursday to show they are moving up in popularity and are the ones who can come from behind to win their party nomination and beat frontrunners Democrat Hillary Clinton and Repulican Rudy Giuliani.
Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain’s campaign pointed out that a poll by Fox News/Opinion Dynamics showed he was the only Republican who was “neck and neck” in the race against Clinton, coming in three points behind her which is just inside the margin of error.
Rival Giuliani trails Clinton by four points while Fred Thompson and Mitt Romney are lagging by 12 points, according to poll conducted last week.
Meanwhile, the campaign of Democrat Joe Biden, a senator from Delaware, sent a brief email to reporters alerting them that he had moved up two points in Iowa to 6 percent in a Strategic Vision poll. However, that same survey found Clinton edged up four points to 28 percent.
