GiulianiJ N continues to lead among Republicans in most national polls, but trails behind in the early primary states of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. GiulianiJ continues to emphasizes a tougherapproachpouch to terrorism, and vowsinvolves to take a hard line against the prospect of Iran developing a nuclear weapons capability if he is elected.

“人人都想自己的支持者为自己宣传，说服更多的选民为自己党内的任意一个竞选者投票。但最后还是他们决定谁来参加最后的竞选。”共和党内的总统提名竞争看起来更加难以预料。前A州长MH继续在I和另一个较早开始投票的州SC做宣传。H的异军突起可能是以牺牲了前纽约市长RG的利益为代价。G继续在多数全国民调中领先其他共和党竞选者，但在最早开始投票的I, NH和SC落后。G继续强调对恐怖主义的强硬政策，宣称如果当选会采取强硬措施反对伊朗获得研究核武器的能力。他在NBC的会见媒体节目中接受了采访。1月3日I的投票将揭开党内会议和初选的序幕，并在2月5日达到高潮，届时将有20几个州为两党的总统候选人投票。两个主要政党的提名者将在年底的政党会谈中被确定。
