Missing Iowa would do nothing but elevate Obama & Edwards - unless she fears losing to them there, or winning narrowly, which would elevate them more. Skipping would be a face-saving measure, limiting damage and focusing on more winnable & important states.

By all means, let’s hope Nillary skips Iowa.

You know Hillary really has never had competition in a race before. It has always been contrived in some way. I am interested to see if the media is going to set her up high enough to then enjoy reporting on her fall. Which the media loves nothing more than to make hamburger out of the sacred cows they create.

Excerpt of DRUDGE post up right now at site:

“WASHINGTON, May 23 — Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign has considered — and rejected — a plan to stop competing in Iowa, the traditional kickoff state in the nominating process, and to concentrate instead on later states, including the 20 or so that are slated to vote on a single day in early February.

The recommendation to pull out of Iowa was in a memorandum written by Mike Henry, Mrs. Clinton’s deputy campaign manager. He made a case that Iowa would consume too much time and money that could be better invested elsewhere.”

FYI...

Agreed, he's the "Dark Horse" at this point.

Edwards is a Southerner, he's a White Male so that's a significant advantage over other Democrat frontrunners.

“Edwards is a Southerner, he’s a White Male”

You forgot to post sarcasm. First off he is not a male and secondly he wouldn’t even win in NC. People here don’t trust him and regard him as a bigger ladyboy than Hillary.

I’m wondering if her focus on the critical issue of picking a campaign theme song is taking priority. Her spin meisters might not have had sufficient time to construct her next personality and policy points.
