Turnout Turns Out
Dang. The final caucus results:
Obama 38%
Edwards 30%
Clinton 29%
Richardson 2%
Biden, Dodd and Gravel have now dropped out.
Huckabee 34%
Romney 25%
Thompson 13%
McCain 13%
An estimated 220,000 Democrats showed up at caucus sites, compared to 124,000 in 2004. About 114,000 Republicans turned out. The last contested Republican caucuses in 2000 drew about 88,000.The actual turnout trumped even the Obama campaign's high expectations of 207,000. Dang.
Comments
I love how the Fox News commentators have done nothing but tooted the Hillary horn leading up to the Iowa Caucuses. "Hillary far ahead in the poles!" "Hillary poised to take Iowa!" Blah, Blah, Blah.
Today I glance at Fox new and almost every face I see is saying the same thing...."This wasn't a surprise", "America is looking for a fresh face", "We predicted this long ago."
Does Fox hit a reset button every morning and just plain forget all the news they reported the day before?
