Wow! Now I know this isn't over. He got way worse than Paul in Iowa and still came around and won.

Yep.

5% in Iowa, and his support in NH was greater by a factor of 10, smacked down W with nearly 50%.

Holy cow... this needs to be bumped. You have no idea how much this lifted my spirits. Not saying we will get 49% in NH, I don't have those kind of hopes anymore, but that is amazing.

The campaign isn't dead, not even close.

This just makes me fear that McCain will get 75% and Paul 25% :p

Why is this important? McCain still lost and didn't get the nomination...this is ridiculous.

The point is, Iowa don't matter. Huckabee sure ain't gonna win.

What's scary is McCain doubled his Iowa support. Hope that means he doesn't double in NH.

Are you kidding? He came from 5th place in Iowa to fighting for first place the whole way through. He won several other states because of that.

This matters because we have a totally different kind of campaign than McCain, and maybe every other candidate ever. If we place top three or even WIN New Hampshire, this will propel us high for Nevada, Michigan, and Wyoming and even S. Carolina, Florida and Maine.
