The Hotline / Diageo Poll: A Preview
28 percent of those surveyed in the latest Hotline/Diageo poll correctly identified ex-NYC mayor Rudy Giuliani as pro-choice -- that includes 33 percent of Republicans.
The rest either believed he is pro-life, or they didn't know.
That sounds like the smoking gun, right?
But only 11 percent of those we surveyed incorrectly stated that Sen. John McCain is pro-choice, indicating an enhanced level of knowledge about Giuliani's social positions among primary voters.
45 percent of those we surveyed believe that Sen. Hillary Clinton is pro-choice.

How is it that the poll results indicate an "enhanced level of knowledge" about Giuliani's positions if in fact more people misidentified his position than McCain's?

My thoughts exactly, Samuel.

Don't you mean voters had an enhanced level of knowledge about McCain's position's, not Rudy's?

perhaps it means that rudy has managed to fool a lot of people with his talk about judges, even those with an enhanced level of knowledge... which the people in the poll have since they figured mccain's stance quite accurately... while just a few months ago pundits had to be corrected by mccain and staff.
