    If there was some sort of future bet to be placed on the Iowa Caucus, I would lay the house on Edward's. The guy has practically been living there for the past four years, and his staff has a great rep around the state. He has the same strategy Kerry had in 04' which is develop a strong rural strategy. Iowa has 99 counties, and he has the most support in the rural ones. Only 77,000 people caucused in 2004, so the rural counties play a huge part. For instance, in some precincts, only 12 people caucus, so he can pick those up easily, and for the other candidates that are not going to be viable-which is getting 15% of the votes, his campaign has made deals with the others to be their second choice. If the weather is going to be bad up there, which it could be, the only people that will go and vote are the ones that have good relationships with the organizers, and I think he has the best staff.

      Please give me a winner in anything. he did finish a strong 2nd, and that is not bad because he was out spent 10-1. What does that mean. Well, it means that if you don't have the $ you have to be very well organized, and I think that his 2nd place finish shows that. He is not done yet, but Obama is also running a top-notch campaign, so either one will win in a landslide against the pubs. Unless Paul or McCain get the nod.
