IA caucus - Kerry 38% (winner), Edwards 32%, Dean 18% (97% reporting) (Gephardt drops out)

Our Dean win predictions sucked. We should both eat crow...

Want to share some of that crow with me?

You know, if we had known in advance that we had both picked Dean, we would have both thought twice about it. ;)

Who here thinks the Clintons have people going through all those Edwards legal files to see who he represented.

Gephardt's father was a milk truck driver. I did not know that.

And that's not all. He was a milk truck driver in Vietnam!

LOL! I've always thought Gephardt looked like an alien!

Geez. Dean sounded like he just finished smoking crack in his "concession" speech.

Don't be so hard on yourself...every pundit was crowning Dean the nominee three months ago.

But last year and last spring it was Kerry, Kerry, Kerry.

"So Mr. Rassmann flew to Iowa. "I'm a news junkie," he said at a news conference here. "I've followed John's career since '84. I wrote him a letter then and invited him to dinner if he ever came to L.A. Never heard back." "I'm a Volvo Republican, a practical idealist," Mr. Rassmann continued. "He stands for things I'd like to stand for. And he's an honest man. With a good healthy ego, but not an ego that knows no bounds." En route from Davenport, Mr. Kerry was staggered to learn by phone of Mr. Rassmann's emergence. "I'm amazed," he said in a raspy, halting voice. "It's stunning. It's amazing to have a guy from 35 years ago just appear." He said, "You know, I never thought I'd ever see the guy again." About 4:30 p.m., he did: Mr. Rassmann, not so tall, not so sharp-featured now, his not-so-red hair thinning on top, embraced Mr. Kerry. His broad, beaming face quickly melted into sobs. Mr. Kerry squeezed it in both hands. Collecting himself, Mr. Rassmann spoke up. "John didn't have to, but he came to the front under fire," he said. "The bow, pardon me, sir. I always had a problem with Navy terminology. And pulled me over. Had he not, there's no question in my mind that I probably would've fallen back into the river. He could've been shot and killed at any time, and so could I. So I figure I probably owe this man my life.""

I'm sorry, but as a VN vet, this is a crock. Maybe a French Navy commander would get a medal for going back to rescue a comrade in distress. I was in the infantry and this kind of action was just a normal thing to do.

Jeez... with Clinton, military experience didn't count. Now we are supposed to hang on John "F'ing" Kerry heroics. The Dems are pathetic. Kerry needs to go back to France...

I want to see Kerry's speech. Should go something like this;"I'm ...Kerry and ...I was in Vietnam.

Hmmmm... How many seconds into Kerry's speech will it take for him to mention that he was Viet Nam? Starting from his first utterance?

I say 68 seconds.

Oh, no. Now he's going into his own Lou Gherig speech...

If Little Dick pimps his son one more time, I swear I'm going to start praying that he gets cancer. It'd give him someone else to pimp, I suppose.

I'm keepin' my tagline for a while, just in case. That space alien may yet return.

Correction: The Zog was only partially right, as he predicted:

1 - Kerry
2 - Dean
3 - Edwards
4 - Gephardt

Somewhat close though.
