Yeah, this is the first article on this subject that I’ve seen since what....correct me if I’m wrong here, but didn’t Hillary come in THIRD in Iowa?

THIRD?

Serious....come on guys, yer joshing me...she came in THIRD?

So okay, it’s only one race and it’s not as if that crazy Iowa thing ever was known far and wide for its accuracy in predicting presidents or anything. Iowa’s primary claim to fame is, eh, its primary. Which is the first one in America, duh.

Still....I could swear I saw that She Who Will Be Queen came in, correct me if I’m wrong here...THIRD?

She was beaten by WHO? Now I know you’re lying. No way this...who? Barack Osama? Oh...Obama! And John Edwards? You guys are telling me that those two beat HILLARY?

Seriously, does this bode anything at all. Cause I’m happy to wishful think. And right along, like most Freepers, I’ve thought that Hillary would never be accepted by the American public like the Drive-By Media adores the woman.

The next weird thing about last night was that, even with two days of Huckabee bashing by Rush Limbaugh, Huckabee still won Iowa with a wide margin.

Is Rush losing his edge? Yes I know he said he wouldn’t endorse in the primary but he had no hesitation with criticizing. And hey, I agreed with every word Rush said about Huckabee.

Yet Huckabee won by a handy margin.

Is it me or is the world turning upside down?

THIRD?

LOL, yes!!!

I think their adoration for her ended when they realized she was unelectable. She simply doesn't have the personality to win the Presidency. She skated into the Senate seat because the NY press let her skirt any actual hard questions and unscripted interviews. They know that isn't feasible for a national election. People will figure out that she's a bitter, hate-filled shrew who feels she is superior to the "common man" and who is good for nothing other than tearing others down.

How many total votes were cast for Republicans? The liberals out numbered Republicans and the overwhelming majority vote on both sides was against the Clintons.

Iowa is known for picking the ‘religious’ sounding republican candidate, and those voters only want sweet nice sounding words. Not exactly representative of this nation as a whole. That ‘hard rock’ state is next and it appears that the comeback of a Phoenix rising from the ashes will overshadow Iowa in less than a week.

I suspect that the Huckabee base is not anything like coterminous with the Limbaugh audience.

The Huckabee base isn't conservative. Thus, it's unlikely to pay much attention to Limbaugh.

I'm not a huge Huckabee booster, but would hold my nose and vote for him, if he's it. What I see happening with Huckabee is the 'evalgelicals' (hate to sound like the MSM) voting for one of their own. I've said before that evangelicals are to the Republican party as blacks are to the Democrats. The republicans have come to expect their vote - regardless the policies. But Huck's non-conservative bend is certainly a twist on this theory. He seems to be more of what we currently have and less a step to the right. It will be an interesting few months.
