Crunch time in Iowa has arrived - hurray!

Well we finally get to see how some people will vote and then it's on to New Hampshire. Hurray. Again, my prediction: three Democratic front runners , Clinton, Edwards and Obama, will survive and head on over to the northeast section of the country. Any one of the three is an A-1 candidate. My preference remains the lone woman of the three. (And still like Chris Dodd.)

You wondering how the candidates are feeling about now? Probably exhausted but also hopeful and excited and also aware that the next lap gets started with tomorrow's dawn. Kind of like the first eighteen holes of a seventy-two hole tournament, each eighteen holes played on a different day. So tonight we find out who the leaders are after the first eighteen holes. Great.

Diane and Eric and I met and discussed golf course stuff and then went on down to the Cabin for lunch way past lunch time. Still plenty of good food and Debbie there to help us. Nick, Neal and Tyler as well.

Maybe a movie tonight - got another one in the mail: Before Night Falls. Expect we will both have had enough politics during the news hour to last us till much later.

World turns. Hope you're pleased with the results tonight.
