I don't know the rule Rich Lowry is referencing, but here's what he has to say:
Giuliani & Gallup [Rich Lowry]
I forget the exact rule, but I believe in recent memory pretty much every Republican leading in the Gallup poll a year out from the convention has won the nomination. The year-out mark is in about a month and Rudy is still holding a solid lead in Gallup. Fwiw...

I think these types of rules are pretty worthless — the data set's too small, etc. etc. — but, as Rich said, fwiw.
