Iowa

I often tell people I do political blogging, but the truth is that while I cover political issues, I don’t usually cover actual politics. However, there was some sort of event in Iowa yesterday that everyone is talking about, and according to the rumors I’m hearing, it wasn’t just another debate or poll but an actual election, so maybe I should say something about it.

I guess I’m most surprised by the results for Chris Dodd and Duncan Hunter, largely because I didn’t know that Chris Dodd and Duncan Hunter were still in this race.

The Republican results worry me. In 6th place with nearly 4% of the vote, we’re still a little too close to a Giuliani presidency for my comfort.

Oddly, the Iowa results mirror my best guess at the final election outcome. I think it will be Obama v.s. Huckabee, and I think Obama will draw a few more votes in the general election.

Either that, or else the Hillary Clinton election machine will keep grinding away, crushing all opposition, until she defeats Romney in the general election.

Or maybe something else will happen. You heard it here first.
