If he loses Iowa he’s toast.

With the new "Super-Primaries" coming hot on the tail of Iowa and New Hampshire, I would tend to discount wins in both those states as much sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Indeed, 2008 may be the last election cycle in which much weight and attention is given to either of them.

Neither state is politcally/demographically what it once was, particularly New Hampshire, which will be a "full blue" state in 20-25 more years. Not quite as bad as Vermont, of course, but probably more resembling Maine just to the northeast. Voter pollution from the Gay state!
