Mike Huckabee, 29 percent

John McCain, 17 percent

Rudy Giuliani, 11 percent

Mitt Romney, 9 percent

Fred Thompson, 8 percent

Don't know/refused 22 percent

OF INTEREST:

Huckabee was favored in a head-to-head matchup with Clinton, 56 percent to 35 percent, in this heavily Republican state. Clinton also trailed McCain (61-31), Romney (51-30), and Giuliani (50-38). Edwards led against Romney (50-37), appeared slightly ahead of Giuliani (48-42) and was about even with Huckabee, but was 11 percentage points behind McCain. Oklahoma has not supported a Democrat in a presidential election since Lyndon Johnson in 1964.

Not much more at link, but I was shocked she was leading in Oklahoma! She loses to the Repug in the General, but -- as it says -- that State hasn't chosen a Dem since 1964. It'll still be a nice pick-up for her on February 5th.
