The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that Fred Thompson is enjoying a bounce from his formal entry into the Presidential race.

In the race for the Republican Presidential Nomination, Thompson is on top for the first time since late July. The former Tennessee Senator is currently the top choice for 26% of Likely Republican Primary Voters. Rudy Giuliani, who has been the frontrunner for most of the year, is close behind with support from 22%. Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney earns the vote from 13% while 12% prefer Arizona Senator John McCain. Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee remains atop the second tier at 6% (see recent daily numbers).

The Rasmussen Reports weekly analysis of the Republican campaign takes a look at the Thompson bounce.

There is little change in the race for the Democratic Presidential Nomination. New York Senator Hillary Clinton attracts 43% of the vote from Likely Democratic Primary Voters. Barack Obama is the top choice for 22% while John Edwards attracts 16% (see recent daily numbers). New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson is a distant fourth at 4%.

2. If they weren't war-moungering scum, I would almost feel sorry for

rank and file Republicans, given the sorry choices for president they have set before them.
