      Iowa presidential polls

      I hate living in Iowa for the most part, but election stuff is electrifying. In the last week I have met both Bill Clinton and Mitt Romney (they love talking to college kids ), and in the last 6 months I've at least said "hi" to Ron Paul(had dinner with him), Hillary/Bill Clinton, Romney, Hunter, Thompson, Obama, and Beyonce Knowles.

      Anyway, here are the latest numbers:

      Huckabee: 29%
      Romney: 24%
      Giuliani: 13%
      Thompson: 9%
      Ron Paul: 7%
      McCain: 7%
      Tancredo: 6%
      Hunter: 1%

      “The mystery of the incarnation of the Lord is the key to all the arcane symbolism and typology in the Scriptures, and in addition gives us knowledge of created things, both visible and intelligible. He who apprehends the mystery of the cross and the burial apprehends the inward [principles] of created things, while he who is initiated into the inexpressible power of the resurrection apprehends the purpose for which God first established everything.” -St. Maximus the Confessor

      "I would join countless numbers of evangelical Protestants and say I have come to know Christ with fulfilling and life-changing effects and daily witness His grace and leadership in my life. But just because God in His grace and mercy has met us where we are and adapted Himself to our unique cultural and religious circumstances in no way means He has abandoned His original plan. God does not contradict Himself. Truth is intolerant, and truth is found in the Church’s living and Holy Tradition. It is my growing conviction that only a strong living Tradition can protect us from the corrosive and destructive forces of modern life, the insidious and deceptive effects of modern pluralism, and the disheartening and confusing proliferation of religious opinions...What are we to do with this "cloud of witnesses," this Holy Tradition through which they live and speak with such clarity and certitude? Well, for me there seems to be only one logical response. I must turn to the Church and its sacred Tradition; I must listen humbly and be instructed. I cannot let God’s marvelous blessings of the past blind me to what I have missed or deter me from that to which He would lead me still. I must return home to Orthodoxy." Rev. Dorraine S.

      Romney is getting kicked to the curb in spite of a record amount of spending in the state.

      Re: Iowa presidential polls

      so...the only reason romney got 24%...was because people voted him in multiple times.

      that's just pathetic.

      Well, the video was from a recent straw poll, which is different than the results in the OP.
      But still...

      Re: Iowa presidential polls

      It's amazing what Chuck Norris can do.
      "Years ago, I mean decades ago, I read a quote about politicians performing quid pro quo favors for campaign cash, and whether or not we could prove it. The guy who was quoted opined that it was difficult to determine. He noted that in many cases, the payoff might not take the form of votes on legislative action -- those might be detectable, and so are avoided -- but could take subtler forms, like the question that is never asked at a hearing.

      The media's doing a terrific job of not asking questions it doesn't want to know the answer to. It doesn't ask these questions in bulk, and the great volume of questions it doesn't ask makes it cheap to not ask questions.

      And it passes these savings on to you, the customer." Ace

      Iowa often does not bring the momentum New Hampshire and South Carolina do but it is significant nevertheless. A Huckabee victory may be significant there, or not. I hope it is but we will have to wait and see.

      Romney got a plan passed in Massachusetts to ensure health coverage for every state resident. What in the world has Huckabee done in Arkansas to boast about, other than being a conservative Chrstian... which apparently is an automatic winner for some people?

      My problem with Romney is that he is distancing himself from all the stuff that got him in a Governorship in Massachusetts to begin with. He isn't merely flip-flopping, he is trying to disown a lot of what he said. Romney has a long way to go before gaining my support... oh... and I voted for Republican Governor William Weld for senate over Kerry, so none of that partisan garbage. I've actually strayed across party lines in significant races.

      Wouldn't it be ironic if a governor out of Arkansas came out of nowhere to beat Hilary and become President?

      No. Not really. That wouldn't be ironic... only in an Alanis Morisette song would it be ironic.

      That is a correct use of the term "irony". It would also be other things.

      like "absolutely magnificent."
      or "just the sort of thing we need."
