...As the presidential candidates tell them every single day, Iowans deserve to be the nations kingmakers because they are exceptional citizens who take their responsibilities very, very seriously. So tonight, even though its very cold even though its Hokies vs. Jayhawks in the Orange Bowl the sturdy Iowa voters will pull on their parkas and go out to fulfill their historic destiny. Perhaps as many as 15 percent of them!
Money will become irrelevant once somebody wins the Iowa caucus, said John (I Currently Have No Money) Edwards. The winner of the Iowa caucus is going to have huge amounts of money pouring in. Edwards, the Democratic third-runner, has spent more time in Iowa than many Iowans, who have a tendency to flee to Florida in the winter.
People, ignore whatever happens here. The identity of the next leader of the most powerful nation in the world is not supposed to depend on the opinion of one small state. Let alone the sliver of that state with the leisure and physical capacity to make a personal appearance tonight at a local caucus that begins at precisely 7 oclock. Let alone the tiny slice of the small sliver willing to take part in a process that involves standing up in public to show a political preference, while being lobbied and nagged by neighbors.

Rush is rarely wrong. LOL Sometimes I wonder if he really does control all of this. hehe
Hildabeast is fading fast, Lord willing she will come in third. The only way the MSM can try and negate reality is to play the new “Iowa doesn’t REALLY count/matter” card. As usual, Rush is right. Man does he have the MSM pegged.
Rush also predicted that the MSM would move from supporting Huckabee to supporting McCain.
Friday morning, Hillary will be an empty pantsuit.
A large number of posters on here will be doing the same thing if their favored candidate doesn’t get a favorable result.
The attitude written into this article is repulsive.
I dont know, they have ignored alot bigger stories.
Hillary stepped in it with the DL for illegals. She hasn’t been able to wipe the stink off of her shoes yet! Thanks to Elrushbo@eibnet.com
I guess we shall see. The fact that they will be able to get all excited about The Rise of Obama will help ease the pain.
Even though I believe Hillary is beatable in the general,
I’d rather she not even get that close to the Whitehouse.
You got that right. You have to beat the Clintons early and often. They have more lives than an cat.

I love the smell of MSM desperation in the morning.
It’s Bush’s fault!
“Even though I believe Hillary is beatable in the general,
Id rather she not even get that close to the Whitehouse.”
I hear ya. Hillary has the money and organization, not to mention total lack of scruples, to cheat and cheat big in the general. No way she wins in a fair fight, but it won’t be a fair fight. She needs to be taken out now.
I am only guessing but the Iowans that "...have a tendency to flee to Florida in the winter..." is probably around 3-5%. Standard liberal inflation to try to make a claim that even Iowans can't deal with Iowa year round.
Notice how Collins disses Edwards for claiming that the winner of Iowa gets a surge of donations by giving him the pet name "John (I Currently Have No Money) Edwards" so as to equate a candidate's war chest as the only barometer for validity ie. Hillary has the biggest so she is the most valid.
It's funny to see Collins attempting to downplay the stature of Iowa (for better or worse) in the process by ignoring the countless statements by Hillary of it's importance bolstered by the amount of time she has spent there.
Hillary is slowly but surely deflating but she has alot of money to burn still and will surely not go quietly.
