if anything you will see paul going up, since urbanites are less likely to vote for huckabee and thompson, who as far as i can tell appeal mainly to rednecks and the ignorant.
Guiliani's strategy is risky, but might work. Its basically screw all the races before Florida. Florida is worth more delegates than them combined, its also the last primary before Super Tuesday. Win Florida, your name will be fresher, you'll have the most delegates. You might just parlay that into a big win on Super Tuesday. Its risky, but could work.
If you expect me to believe that the people who like Ron Paul are sane or educated then stop right here.
if no clear front runner emerges, it might pay off.
a Huckabee win in Iowa and a McCain win in NH would bode well for Rudy; he can outspend both of them combined on super tuesday and he'd probably do very well amongst republicans in urban areas (NY/NJ seems almost a given win for him).
if Romney pulls NH and SC, though, he might be fracked... I haven't looked at any SC polls recently, so I can't say as to what might happen there.
Hes pulling away thanks to Richardson, Dodd, and Kucinichs people diverting their caucusers to his camp when they failed to meet the requirements to move on.
sure there are some crazies, but at least they aren't empty headed morons like thompson and huckabee supporters are.
So, Ron Paul is 6th out of 7 candidates and you expect me to believe he is a popular revolutionary? You just need to meet reality.

Well, one thing for sure, tomorrow. all the candidates who did not win will be explaining why they did better than expected and also explaining why the winners actually lost.
But in a moment of Supreme boredom, this afternoon, I listened to Rush Limbaugh. And this afternoon Rush was explaining why the Rumor that Fred Thompson would drop out of the Presidential race if he did not do well in Iowa was false. But in a seven person race, 14.3% is the mean expectation and given ole Ducan Hunter may get zero making it a six person race, then making the real expectation a higher 16.7%, and if the initial 15% Thompson showing holds up, it will be interesting to see if Thompson stays in because he is on the cusp.
As for Ron Who, he has cracked the double digits his critics said he would not exceed.
And as I post this, I hear my wife's television say the networks have declared Obama and Huckabee the Iowa winners.
Now all exit stage east, on to New Hampshire.

You do understand that finishing second to last makes it easy to stick a fork in Ron Paul's campaign, right?
