Iowa Speaks
A few comments, then a link to some good round ups.
All along people have been warning not to take the polls too seriously. And Lo, Hillary who has been on top for a while finishes third to Obama (Edwards second), and Huckabee finishes first with Rudy no where in sight.
While the Paulnuts raised tons of cash, common sense prevailed, and he trailed the pack.
Obama finishing first will surely be a shock to Hillary, and on the other side, Thompson who has been gaining momentum is trailing in third just ahead of McCain.
My hope at this stage, is that New Hampshire throws a wrench in the momentum on all accounts, and makes this a contest never seen before.
I would dearly love to see a nail biter, right down to the wire.
Sites with good roundups:
Everyone hang on, this is just getting started. Hillary's bag of dirty tricks will surely come into play, and Edwards hair isnt even warmed up yet.
Meanwhile, my money is still on Fred.

Common sense prevailed? I suppose one might interpret rejecting Hillary and Rudy as common sense, were it not for the annointing of Obama Winfrey and Micky Huckacon. As I said some little time ago, one can confidently expect the American electorate to go to the polls (or caucuses, in this case) and vote neither “yea” nor “nay” but “baaaaah!” like good lil sheeple, lead by the Mass Media Podpeople Hivemind.
Well, the Republican’t sheeple of Iowa have adequately demonstrated that they are either:
1. too stupid to be out without a keeper (or, alternatively, as an old cowpoke I once knew was wont to say, too dumb to pour piss from a boot)
or
2. fully on board with the move to surrender U.S. sovereignty at the behest of The Governor from Tyson Foods, while fully embracing nanny state expansion of Federal busybodyness (both Hussein and Micky are really big on the government running folks’ lives for them).
Personally, I’m going for the kinder, more charitable interpretation: they’re dumber than a bag of hammers.
Great message.
I hope you’ll comment my blog..
