The latest NBC News/WSJ poll is showing the effect of gravity on the "little man looking for a balcony." Yes, Rudy Toot Tooty dropped 13 percentage points among Rethugs since November. His unfavorable rating shot up from 14% to 37% in the same time frame. Kerik, mistress perks, and shady business ties-- all have conspired to bring this vastly overrated pol down to earth in recent weeks.
On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton continues to hold a sizable lead (22 points) over Barack Obama, despite the best efforts of the MSM to "make the race interesting" (and thereby sell advertising) by a constant drumbeat of negative coverage. This biased treatment by the "Kool Kids from Beltway High" was the subject of a Howie Kurtz analysis in the WaPo today, nicely covered by the Daily Howler, who's been following the Kool Kids' antics for some time.
