McCain's Support Drops Among Iowa Republicans


Once viewed as a front-runner, he's now in single digits.


"Former presidential advisor David Gergen thinks he knows why. "Obviously his stand on the war as well as his stand on immigration -- both of those have caused him unhappiness in different parts of the Republican party."



"Beyond that, he's a very different candidate now. Sadly, tragically, I think his years as a prisoner of war may be catching up with him maybe in terms of his age."



Ouch, did he just imply that John McCain is crazy? I think that Giuliani and McCain dropped in Iowa polls from a combination of their stances on the key issues and their decision to skip the Iowa Straw Poll.
