I don't think it means a darn thing. Obama won because he was the second choice of many of the people in the caucus. As a result, he not only picked up his votes, but also picked up practically all of the second choice votes. Hillary is too polarizing to be second choice. So, the only votes she picked up were her as first choice. Huckabee won because 60 percent of the Christian Evangelists came out. Additionally, Romney ran all those negative ads, which the people in Iowa do not like.

However, when people start thinking about issues, they will realize that Obama has no real experience and that Huckabee is just a likeable guy who acts folksy. As a result, I do not believe that either Obama or Huckabee have the nomination, and will be surprised if either wins their party's nomination.

Me? I am not satisfied with any of the candidates. I will vote for the one that I believe will do the least bit of damage to the country. I no longer believe that the best man wins office. The presidency seems to be going to the one with the most money to spend on his/her campaign.

I'm changing from republican to democrat. However we are truly just one party greater than comunism. Both parties seem to be set on destroying middle class. Oh wait I mean bring lower class up and pulling upper middle class down. Seems like they want the rich and then everybody else.

scoobs12.... I copied/pasted part of your post

"Both parties seem to be set on destroying middle class. Oh wait I mean bring lower class up and pulling upper middle class down. Seems like they want the rich and then everybody else."
----------------------------------------------------------------

Actually, both parties are not bent on turning our country into two levels which, according to you, would be the rich and the middle class. You see it is the middle class who pay the taxes. It is the middle class who join the military and fight the wars. It is the middle class who work and keep the economy going. It is the middle class who ..... well .... I think you get my drift.

Let me explain to you what republicans and democrats want to do --- stay in office forever so they can enjoy the power and privilege it brings and work against "the will of the people."

sad I hope I have enlightened you. bigsmile

Obama has the 18 to 35 age group of voters. They are the ones pushing for change. After all...it is their world at stake.

Edwards got second then Clinton. Huckabee is the other one.

There is hope with Obama, Edwards is being too much of a lawyer as of yet. Clinton has the healthcare people in her pocket. Or is she in their pocket? Hmmm, strange when you think about it. She is pushing for universal health care? Is she really going to risk losing them?

Huckabee is good. I am listening for more from him and Obama. Even Edwards.

Is it true that Obama was raised Muslim and that he attended a radical Muslim school in Jakharta? I heard that on the radio this morning.

I have serious doubts about these so called elections, who is keeping an eye on the crooks? We need to stop secret ballots to stop the crookery and start signing our ballots with our names,and have honest elections. How long are we going to put up with this mob rule? And get back to the Constitution and our republic(rule of law) I figure Obama is Our LAST CHANCE to save this country.I want Ron Paul, would even like Dennis Kuccinich, but everyone seems to be programmed not to choose either of those , so that leaves Obama as our last Chance of someone who will represent the common people of united States in America(land of heaven) instead of Israel.

I would take anyone except hillary...even donald duck...lol...could not take another spell of bill molesting the interns at the white house



Please do not makeunfounded accusations. There was not even a question of President Clinton molesting anybody. he had consentual sex with someone other than his wife, yes. BUT that is NOT molestation.
