The Democratic Iowa Results

My first choice barely registered with less than 1% of the vote. (Chris Dodd) I expected his no lose, but not come in worse than "uncommitted."

My second choices were Edwards and Obama and They came in 1st and 2nd so that's cool.

I fear that both coming in ahead of Clinton will put off the establishment of a two way race which is where an Edwards or Obama would pull decisively ahead of Hillary Clinton. It will be interesting to see how the race changes in New Hampshire.

  1. I'm personally an Obama supporter, but endorsed Richardson on my site as having the better civil liberties platform.

    New Hampshire is going to be tricky, I think. Clinton still has a double-digit lead as of the most recent polls, but high independent turnout could impact the result. If Obama actually wins New Hampshire, that's probably it. I would expect her to win NH, but I hope Obama makes a strong second and then carries Michigan and South Carolina. I really feel like on top of being my favorite of the candidates, he has the best chance of winning.
