Davis is still toasty:

The Field Poll of 505 likely voters also found that 55 percent favored the removal of Democrat Gov. Gray Davis

And Cruz is still ahead:

The poll from Sept. 3-7 found 30 percent favoring Democrat Bustamante, compared to 25 percent for political neophyte Schwarzenegger. It had a 4.5 percent margin of error.

Although really, that is too close to call.

The interesting part is this:

"The polls finds that if McClintock were to drop out of the race, most of the state senator's supporters would prefer Schwarzenegger, moving the actor slightly ahead of Bustamante in voters' preferences, 33 percent to 31 percent," poll researchers Mark DiCamillo and Mervin Field wrote.

And, perhaps because the other conservative, Bill Simon, got out of the race?

The poll showed Republican State Senator McClintock in third place at 13 percent, up from 9 percent last month.

I mean, not really a surge.
