All five of the leading Republican presidential candidates � including John McCain � would beat Democrat Hillary Clinton in a head-to-head match-up, according to a surprising new poll from Zogby International.

The national poll of nearly 10,000 people � about equally divided between Democrats and Republicans, with about one-quarter independents � is more bad news for longtime front-runner Clinton. It shows that she�s slipping not only in Iowa and several other early caucus or primary states, but across the country as well.

Asked whom they would choose in a race between Giuliani and Clinton, 43 percent of respondents said Giuliani and 39.4 percent chose Clinton, with 14.6 percent opting for �someone else� and 3 percent selecting �will not vote/not sure.�
