Iowa or bust (with an emphasis on "bust")
"Iowa will make the difference. If Barack doesn't win Iowa, it's just a dream."
-- Michelle Obama
To borrow a line from George Plaster, you can bank this:
It doesn't matter whether Obama wins Iowa or not. The Clinton Machine is revving into high gear ... and tain't nothin' gonna stop it.
Here's what I envision for Osama, er, Obama:
He'll come in third in Iowa, behind Hillary Clinton and John Edwards; he'll come in a distant second behind Hillary in NH, the high-water mark of his campaign; he'll "suspend" his campaign when Hillary bests him in high-stakes states like California; and his swan-song will be a prime time speech at the Democratic convention, during which delegates will be driven to tears and foot-stomping by his Oprah-esque, style-over-substance oratory -- you know, touting "hope" and "promise" and "commitments" and "children" and "families" and "peace" and "love" and "bomb Pakistan" and other such horse puckey.
