Help! The caucusians are winning!
Here are the Iowa results according to Drudge: Obama 36.98; Edwards 30.05; Clinton 29.75More here If present trends continue, Bill Quick will be proven right -- despite the fact that I wanted him to be wrong: Obama and the young hustler, John Edwards, for the Dems, and Huckabee and Some Sacrificial Lamb for the GOP, with the Donks winning in a landslide.This is weird. Maybe I should change the channel. I prefer some serious Iowa caucus blogging like this: 7:31 PM: Jesus, what a disaster. The Huckabee people are speaking in tongues and accusing the Romney people of believing in dinosaurs. The McCain people have invited the network news people for their caucus in the garage, and that fucking Tim Russert has his lighting man standing on the hood of Tammy's Civic. I open up the garage door and shut off the garage power at the fuse box, figuring they'll get cold and go away(Via Glenn Reynolds.) And later: 8:15 PM: That was weird. I heard the exhaust fan running in the upstairs bathroom so I went up to turn it off. When I opened the door Barack Obama was in there torching a one-hitter. "Hey man, want a hit?" he goes, with a big grin. I'm pretty toasted already so I said no thanks. "That's cool,' he says. Really seems like a nice guy. So then he shakes out some blow on the counter and offers me a line. "No thanks man," I say. "That's cool," he says. "Y'all Chase the Dragon?" he asks, pulling out a spoon, lighter and some rubber tubing. I declined again. I'm not sure how good a president he will be, but he's certainly a lot better house guest than Hillary.Now that's more like it! posted by Eric on 01.03.08 at 10:22 PM
Comments
Iowa's caucuses are inherently interesting, but as predictors of who'll get the nominations, they're sub-par. The front-runners nationally are usually unaffected by the results of the Iowa polls. I wouldn't worry too much. Among other things, Huckabee and Obama have some claim to Iowa as "home turf." Francis W. Porretto · January 4, 2008 04:49 AM An ugly four years? As opposed to what? The past eight have been really lovely? Steven Anderson · January 4, 2008 11:05 PM |
