Do the Insiders Know Anything?

Apparently insiders are a bit nutty in their predictions. 35% of Republican "insiders" (Congressmen, former party leaders, etc.) predict that Giuliani will win the nomination. 35% are predicting Romney. 18% are predicting Thompson.

The "insider" analysis seems to be at odds with what the Republican candidates, Democrats and the MSM think. Based on the fact that FDT is getting the vast majority of the criticisms and hit pieces, I think it is clear that he is the front runner from the competition's point of view.

The troubling aspect is that it is obvious that the Republican "insiders" are not understanding the state of the party, which is discouraging.
