New Hampshire Poll Numbers Show 3-Man Race For Republican Nomination

From the article:

"The latest WMUR/CNN New Hampshire Primary Poll shows that among likely Republican voters, Mitt Romney has dropped to 23 percent support, down from 33 percent in July. Rudy Giuliani is right behind at 22 percent, up from 18 percent. Sen. John McCain was third at 17 percent, surging up from 12 percent in July. That represents a rebound for the early leader in the race, and with a margin of error of 5.4 percent, McCain has pulled back to striking distance."

I am honestly surprised that McCain has managed to pull himself back into the race. Over the summer, his campaign seemed dead in the water; at one point there were major fund-shortages as supporters began to sense that the ship was sinking. Its even more surprising that his resurgence has come following Fred Thompson's announcement (he is now polling at 11 percent in NH). I suppose the fact that things in Iraq are at least a little better has helped his cause.
