Husband Bill
The Politico: Looks at the role of Bill Clinton in Iowa and a future First Husband. The reason that Master politician has been needed is that Hillary Clinton is not him, the problem with Democrats is that they super impose Bill on Hillary and expect it work, software patches on your PC should work, does not mean they will all the time. Hillary is not Bill.
A Fake but a good Fake ?
Romney is good very good on the TV spots, a fake but a good fake. Sometimes a fake is better than the real thing, politics is a very odd sport. Romney the next President ?
New Poll in Iowa
A new poll from Zogby, on the Democratic side the Obama surge has stalled and Edwards is on the up, a trend of this week, a winning trend ? If Edwards was to win, he has no where to go, he is taking public money, he can not afford to fight the Clinton Machine. Here is the Zogby Poll:
Clinton 30 %
Obama 26 %
Edwards 26 %
The race is to close to call on the Democratic side.
On the Republican side, we still have Huckabee in the lead just over Romney. Romney due to his money should be able to take Iowa. Here is the Poll Results:
Huckabee 29 %
Romney 27 %
McCain 13 %
If Huckabee can hold on, and McCain can sharpen his political add in N.H then McCain just might get the nomination.

The Wild Card of 08
New York Times: This could be the wild card of o8, if Mayor Bloomberg was to run for the Presidency. He is a BILLIONAIRE, the NYT writes the following, " Advisers have said Mr. Bloomberg, a billionaire many times over, might invest as much as $1 billion of his own fortune (he spent about $160 million on his two mayoral races) on a presidential campaign. " Both Republicans and Democrats combined could not match him in the money stakes, he could spend a billion and not notice, this would then become even more an interesting race, the establishments of both Parties should be very worried about a Bloomberg Campaign.
Howard Dean Moment
CNN: Reports that a Top Supporters of Senator Hillary Clinton, Governor Ted Strickland of Ohio has been critical of the role of Iowa in the election process. This recalls when Howard Dean was seen to be critical of the role of Iowa in the election process, this did not help him with the good people of Iowa. Also do the Clinton people have internal polls showing them behind, it seems that the Senator was planning a quick getaway from Iowa to N.H. I hope the good people of Iowa will vote to show their negative view of candidates who don't wait to to hear the election result.
