Iowa is an interesting state.

Remember how those delegates went to Ron Paul? Wonder how that all works out at the convention? Gotta grab my popcorn on that one.

Party rules have changed slightly this cycle. The top vote getters in Iowa will be guaranteed at least some delegate votes this time.

A lot of people don’t understand that the Iowa caucuses were always just neighborhood meetings for mundane party business; electing officers and offering platform planks and ideas for raising money. The informal presidential preference poll was just to add interest to the boredom.

Obviously, the MSM and political junkies going full retard have made it much different than was intended.
