Arizona Sen. John McCain is tied 30 - 30 percent with former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani among New York State likely Republican presidential primary voters, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney gets 9 percent, with 8 percent each for former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.

Cue ridiculous analysis by Maurice Carroll:

"If he can't make it here, he can't make it anywhere. What happens to Mayor Giuliani's presidential prospects if he doesn't score a resounding victory in his native New York?" asked Maurice Carroll, director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
