The latest FoxNews poll shows a big gain for Hillary in a trial matchup with Rudy Giuliani. In the current poll, taken on September 26th, Hillary leads by eight points, 46-39. This compares with a previous lead of only five points in July and a deficit of three points in June:

| Feb 14 2007 | 40 | 49 |
| Mar 28 2007 | 44 | 45 |
| Jun 6 2007 | 42 | 45 |
| Jul 18 2007 | 46 | 41 |
| Sep 26 2007 | 46 | 39 |
Why is Rudy slowing and Hillary gaining? The obvious answer is the decreasing saliency of the terrorism issue. As voters become more confident that we will not be attacked again, the need for Giuliani drops and their willingness to back Hillary increases.
