Here's that new LA Times poll (PDF). The results (from an expansive list of candidates):

Giuliani: 27%
Thompson: 21%
McCain: 12%
Romney: 10%

And here's the LA Times write-up.

Interestingly, when the field is narrowed, and respondents are asked to pick between just the Big Four, the Republican primary breaks down like this:

Giuliani: 32%
Thompson: 28%
McCain: 17%
Romney: 14%

Typically, Mr. Giuliani has been picking up most of the slack when the field is narrowed (because he's been most voters' second-choice candidate). Now, it seems, Mr. Thompson is picking up some of that slack.

Meanwhile, here are the results on the Democratic side:

Clinton: 33%
Obama: 22%
Edwards: 8%

They also run some general election match-ups and find the following: "Despite Clinton's lead, Obama is the strongest Democrat in hypothetical matchups with Republicans in the general election, running even with or well ahead of the GOP's top contenders."
