Iowa

A few thoughts...

Iowa Republicans voted for the candidate most similar to George Bush--a southern governor who is socially conservative and fiscally liberal. Social issues matter. Unfortunately, fiscal issues matter less, at least in Iowa.

All the money and media attention, and what did it get Rudy and McCain? The media insisted on covering national polls, fundraising, and stupid controversies like the "floating cross" rather than substance.

Ron Paul did pretty well considering what he went up against.

I have no idea who's most electable on the Democrat side, but it's fun to see Hillary lose.

Who will win Wyoming?
