Crossovers work both ways.
Iowa has about the same percent of evangelicals as the national average, but DOUBLE the percent of mainstream liberal denomination adherents. In other words, Iowa, even Iowa Republicans, aren’t especially conservative.
The popular theory is that Democrat crossovers would support a weak candidate like Paul - or Santorum - instead of Messiah Gingrich or Messiah Perry.
Unfortunately, Iowegian Republicans don’t need Democrat push to support Romney!
That’s why the Establishment Republicans give us Iowa and N.H. first - to tip the scales to RINOs.
We need a complete shakeup - Wyoming and South Carolina first in ‘16.
