A pair of polls released today show Senator McCain starting to tick back up in the polls, both in Iowa and Florida.

In Iowa, McCain is running fourth with 9% in a virtual tie with Fred Thompson who is at 10%.   A third place showing in Iowa would be a huge coup as most observers were expecting him to finish at least 4th or 5th.

In Florida, Senator McCain has bounced up to third place with 15% of the vote.  He’s behind Huckabee at 21% and Giuliani is at 25%…. however Rudy’s support has been dropping fast and furious!
