Iowa voted for: CHANGE!
Well I was wrong on just about everything except 1 big thing….Clinton finished last on the Democrat side. I did get that right!
Final Results from the Iowa Caucus:
Democrats
1. Obama 38%
2. Edwards 30%
3. Clinton 29%
Republican (86% in)
1. Huckabee 34%
2. Romney 25%
3. McCain 14%
4. Thompson 13%
5. Paul 10%
The biggest thing that stood out to me about Iowa was the uniform vote for change in America. Bottom line, Obama and Huckabee both are a core vote for change. Obama has always been about change, and Huckabee could not be anymore different than the current Republican regime. This was a horrible night for Hillary Clinton, and a really bad night for Mitt Romney. It will be very interesting to see the next few Caucuses. It “could” be a dangerous and slippery slope for Clinton and Romney.
The Money: (cash on hand)
Obama - 36 mil
Edwards- 12.3
Clinton- 50.4 mil
Huckabee- .6 mil
Romney- 9.2 mil
McCain-3.4 mil
Thompson- 7.1 mil
Paul- 5.4 mil
Giulliani- 16.6 mil
Next Caucuses Primaries to watch:
New Hampshire, January 8th
South Carolina, January 19th
Nevada, January 19th
Florida, January 29th
In closing: Obama’s speech was amazing, almost a goose bump speech. Huckabee’s speech was really, really good. The next few weeks is going to be awesome…The race to Super Tuesday is on!

Is there such thing as “Caucus Bowl” parties? If not, I think we’d be on to something.
Very interesting night to say the least…. Huckabee doing what he did with that little money, and Romney’s debt compared to the other candidates.

I agree. Next week will “tell the tale” on the next phase of campaigning because after NH, candidates will drop out and we’ll see who’s left standing. Both speeches at the end brought chills thinking about what changes are coming. Can’t wait!!

FYI, the next states will be primaries, not caucuses.

Be aware that your money stats are for Q3 (ending September 30), not Q4 (ending December 31) and that some candidates report money that can only be used in the general election, not the primaries.
