I am eagerly awaiting the sinking of the USS Hillary.

freakin' hilarious LOL!

[Milwaukee_Guy]

My guess,

1. Edwards
2. Obahma
3. Hillary

1. Romney
2. Huckabee
3. Paul

I personally would like to see Fred Thompson do better. Romney has spent so much money in Iowa I believe he will place better than Huckabee. Hillary will do better in later primaries. We haven’t seen her hit team in full force yet.

Are we dancing while we chant?

[TalonDJ]

Basically every candidate getting voted on has a chance for someone to stand up and say a few words in support. In a small group it is whoever is there. For all I know there might be a campaign staffer living a couple blocks away that is all ready with a prepared speech. But if no one is I will say a few things myself.

[MinorityRepublican]

I agree with you that John Edwards will win and I think he’s the most dangerous Democrat of the bunch.

[xzins]

1. Fred Thompson
2. Mike Huckabee
3. Duncan Hunter
4. John McCain
5. Satan’s little helper
6. Satan Hisself
7. Ron Paul
8. Alan Keyes

Romney: 26%

Huckabee: 22%

Did you paint this?

[TonyInOhio]

"What did the leaky windows in Sioux City say?"

"Caucus! Caucus!"

[Domandred]

Was gonna say I’d put Paul below Rudy...then I noticed you had them tied.

[JohnnyZ]

I’m pretty sure Paul will beat Rudy. I think that’s one of the safer bets of the evening.
