Iowa went for Bush in 2004. Now Dim caucus goers outnumber us more than 2 to 1.
It is definitely a horse race. Those that have trashed Romney here, without a rising of Fred Thompson in the polls or votes, will have to settle for Huckabee or Guiliani, should Romney be defeated. I hope they are ready for that.
Interesting analysis at MyManMitt. Claims they got the number of votes they expected to get, but were swamped by the evangelical turnout. Points out that no place else in the world has 50% evangelicals, not even SC. (To which I'd add Freepers have claimed SC evangelicals were more open to logic. I hope the Freepers are right as they'll get a chance to prove it.) And claims they achieved 2 of their top 3 goals tonight, although obviously not the win one: Fred beating McCain (up 300 votes with 7% to go) and Obama winning so the NH independents would be drawn to his bandwagon instead of McCain's.
Sure it's spin, but at least it's reasonable, logical spin.
