The American Spectator

Was it the debates or is something else going on? It's just one poll but there is something afoot. The new Gallup poll has Rudy up 2 to 34%, Thompson up 3 to 22%, McCain charging back up 4 pts (now in third) and Romney down 4 pts. to fourth place. Was it the debate that gave McCain the boost or have bad memories of immigration reform been replaced by new images of him as a war leader? Romney arguably(or "apparently" as the debate will now be remembered) had the worst night of the top three who were there but is there something else at play here? More perhaps will be clear when we get the Gallup favorables/unfavorables.
