Well, both MSNBC and CNN have called Iowa for Huckabee. He has about 35 percent of the vote.
Surprisingly, to me, Paul has about 11 percent.
So Huck has immediate credibility and Paul can claim a better showing than most expected.
And the Paul wackos will try and figure out how to spin his 70-80 percent poll numbers with an 11 percent vote.
Congrats, Huck.
You will probably lose in NH but as long as you finish in the top three there, you should be favored in South Carolina.

And Rudy?
Who knows?

There's an Iowa caucus thread already. Please use it.

I thought Paul would get 5-8 percent. So at least to me its surprisingly well.

Well current polls, show the ONLY candidate from the GOP that has a chance in November is McCain. In head to head polls hes the only candidate that beast Hillary or Obama(based on recent polls).

Paul did well, finally people need to stop pretending he has no support. That said, his supporters need to finally come to terms with the fact he has not now and never did have a chance to be president. He's been interesting. Let's put it to sleep, can we?

not giving a shit about polls is pretty silly.

if your goal is having someone in power who agrees with most of your politics, why vote for someone who agrees on 4/4 issues but is totally unelectable vs someone who agrees on 3/4 issues and is projected to be a much better contender?

And Ron Paul's campaign is over. Finally. He got about as many votes as I expected...almost none :laugh:

Best of all, Obama defeated Hillary in resounding fashion.

:thumbsup:
