GOP race looks like Romney vs. Rudy

The latest Evans-Novak Political Report says Fred Thompson may already be dead in the water, and concludes that the GOP presidential sweepstakes is fast becoming a Romney vs. Rudy contest (I said as much on the Nightly Daily):

"Unless we see a surge by Thompson, Gingrich, Sen. John McCain or Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney could win Iowa, New Hampshire, and Nevada -- the first three contests. That could propel him into first place in the national polls and improve his position in Florida and South Carolina (where he currently trails in polls). Romney could enter Super Tuesday February 5 as the frontrunner."

However, Rudy Giuliani "is on the rise in Iowa polls, and outpolls everyone but Thompson in South Carolina. Giuliani's greatest asset may be the front-loaded primary schedule, because he also leads in Florida and California."
