Obama, Edwards have higher favorables than Giuliani, McCain

From Rasmussen:

Democrats
Republicans

Obama:
59% favorable / 34% unfavorable => 25% net favorable

Edwards:
57% favorable / 35% unfavorable => 22% net favorable

Giuliani:
58% favorable / 38% unfavorable => 20% net favorable

McCain:
55% favorable / 39% unfavorable => 16% net favorable

Giuliani is now safely out of the stratosphere, and Obama is actually approaching Rudy's old numbers.  This represents a sea of change, since now we can add candidate favorability (for two of our three strongest contenders) to the generic ballot advantage.  And if, as seems likely, someone other than McCain or Giuliani gets the nod, we have an even more decisive advantage:

Romney:  -8% net favorable

F. Thompson: 8% net favorable

Huckabee: -9% net favorable

Gingrich: -5% net favorable

Brownback: -19% net favorable
