It is misleading to boldface the "leading" candidate in each of the matchups when they are statistically even. For example, the entry suggests that Giuliani would beat Clinton in Ohio when in fact they are tied. So please only boldface the differences that are real by statistical standards.
Of the 9 matchups, it looks like the GOP nominee would win only two of them at this stage and Democrats would win three. The other four appear to be even. Interesting stuff. One wonders how much primary voters are taking these general election projections into account.
