It's a turkey of a plan. Iowa and NH are about gaining momentum in small states. Though he's focused on bigger states, by not competing in "momentum states" he is waging a river boat gamble. He's toast anyway for being too ethnic and too NY.

POTUS is a WASP's job until an African American breaks down the wall. (Note that the only Catholic was educated at Choate and Harvard and "summered" at a bastion of WASPdom.)

Looks like a reporter from my area had some fun in Iowa.

Syracuse.com

I love it. The lib barber supports "Mike Edwards".

Rudy and McCain are duking out for the lead in national polls. Neither campaigned much in Iowa and chose instead to focus on other states. McCain is set to win big in NH and has won lots of endorsements.

McCain is close to pulling out third place in Iowa. Nice momentum for a guy with very low expectations going in. Romney got crushed. He had all the money, all the organizers, the media hype as the early leader. What a collapse. He needs a decisive New Hampshire victory to have a prayer.

Obama vs. McCain or Huckabee would be my guess. Should be an interesting election year.

CVBTank · 01-03-2008, 10:31 PM

Huckabee won't stick. McCain is going to pull this out, and he may be the only guy who Democrats should be terrified of. Hell, he'd make me reconsider my vote.

On Edit: DODD dropped out. Not that it matters.

I really hope McCain pulls this out. Everyone had him written off for dead 4-6 months ago. Mitt is too much of a phony, Huck is too much of a look at me Christian and Rudy just keeps talking about 9/11. I can see Thompson backing out and supporting McCain as they're good friends. A McCain/Thompson ticket would be very nice.

Ron Paul finished better than Rudy!!!!

Rudy is dead.

ambler · 01-04-2008, 01:15 AM

Obama COULD beat McCain head on. He's simply so much more charismatic. He will raise so much more money, Mac would have a hard time keeping up.

Rudy didn't spend a dime on Iowa so this didn't kill him. Didn't help, but he's still in it. Romney was the one whom this really hurt.

But c'mon, finishing behind Paul? The big winner tonight was Obama by far.

Joe McDonald · 01-04-2008, 03:17 AM

Rudy didn't bother in Iowa, so NH is more important and then Florida.

Personally a McCain/Guiliani ticket is the one for me. McCain has a lot of momentum in this race.

As for the Dems. If Hillary doesn't win NH, she could be done. This is a huge upset, because SC is the next Dem primary after NH and there's a lot of Obama supporters there.

Losses in Iowa, NH and SC can spell doom for Clinton.

Edwards is out of it unless he wins NH. Doesn't have the money to continue.
