All this excitement over what’s basically another straw poll. It won’t result in any delegates, it just shows who’s favored in Iowa right now.

Dunno who’ll win tonight though it’s obviously going to be close. I really don’t think it’ll matter.

New Hampshire is so obviously Romney’s that nobody’s really challenging him there.

The real entertainment will be South Carolina. And if Romney doesn’t get at least a strong second there, Florida. At that point we’ll know for sure: was it all hype with Romney the certain, or are we actually going to be watching a horse race.

This? side show.
