Who do you think will be the Dem and Rep winners tonight in Iowa? (Not who you want to win, but who you think will win.)

Dem: Obama
Rep: Huckabee

    I think Obama will win for the Dems. As for the Reps I really don't know. I'm hoping Paul but realistically I think Huckabee will end up winning.

    I'd love to see Ron Paul win or place a strong 2nd, just to see all the talking heads on Fox News, MSNBC, and CNN have a stroke.

    Both sides are too close to call, but I think Obama will get enough second choice voters to win. I'll go with Huckabee on the Republican side.

    I'll go with Huck + Edwards, but it's really anybody's guess.

    obama might as well of passed those shovels around to all the candidates in iowa tonight... because they are all digging themselves a hole by acting like a bunch of morons.

    Dems:
    Obama will edge out Hillary
    can't see beyond that.

    Repubs:
    1. Romney
    2. Paul
    3. Huckabee
    4. no freaking clue past that

    That is my optomism that Huckabee's numbers are cooked up.

    If you don't swallow that, just switch 2 and 3, and i think it's fairly realistic.

    Tune back in at 10pm to find out what happened.

    Obama for the Dems and can't figure out who's the strongest on the Rep...have to wait to see it...

    I'm not a fan of these damn things. only about 10% of voters (in Iowa) are even going to vote.
  • MrBrianMrBrian Posts: 2,672
    I think edwards but I won't be shocked if Obama takes it. on the republican side- Huckabee I guess, perhaps ron paul :)
  • DriftingByTheStormDriftingByTheStorm Posts: 8,684
    i see a LOT of people picking Huckabee for the Repubs.

    Does that mean NO ONE puts faith in the polls?

    Because all polls for the last half of december on show ROMNEY in the lead by 5+ points.

    Obviously i care less which of the two takes it (Rom vs Huck) but just FYI.

    :D

    I think many will be surprized to see Clinton ending up in 3rd place.

    I think it will be:
    Dem:
    1) Obama
    2) Edwards
    3) Clinton

    Rep:
    1) Huckabee


    Come New Hampsire I think the Rep. race will get a lot more interesting (esp. with McCain polling so strong there) while the Dems may just move a spot.
  • jlew24asujlew24asu Posts: 10,118
    I think ron paul might come in last.

    The Des Moines register has had Huckabee leading over Romney since November. I usually trust the local polls more than the major news org polls.

    I'm thinking Obama and Huckabee win tonight with Edwards and Romney second respectively.

    Counting some of the Republican wards on C-Span2 now. Not looking good for Ron Paul. He's been last or second to last in every ward they did so far. McCain or Romney seem to be the top two. I guess it's still early as a lot of the votes are still on the Pony Express on their way..

    Glad to see Obama win!
    I'd like to see a Obama/Biden ticket and even a Obama/Edwards tic if need be.

    Well, he's almost caught McCain and he smoked Giuliani, so it isn't a bad showing at all, unless you actually thought he'd win. The talking heads I was listening to said that if he could get double digits it would be considered a success. He's at 10% right now, so as far as I can tell it's looking good.

    you're right. no one really supports paul. that explains how he pulled in 20 mill last quarter.

    question: why does anyone support fred thompson? i don't even think fred thompson supports fred thompson.
    i'm more a fan of popular bands.. like the bee-gees, pearl jam
