Huckabee, Obama win Iowa

Obama and Huckabee win first 2008 vote

DES MOINES, Iowa (Reuters) - Barack Obama took the first step to winning the Democratic presidential nomination on Thursday with a victory in Iowa, while Mike Huckabee capped a stunning political rise to beat Republican rival Mitt Romney.

Obama, an Illinois senator bidding to make U.S. history as the first black president, won the first Democratic test on the road to the White House with a win over New York Sen. Hillary Clinton and former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards, who were in a tight battle for second.

Huckabee will never get the GOP nomination, he can't beat Clinton or Obama.

Agreed, it is Iowa, the only importance of Iowa is that it is first.

Clinton has the Democratic vote already, the only question is which Republican will receive the nod.

Nationally, Rudy is still in front of the Republican pack, I am hoping that he remains in the lead.

Yes, the Huckabee win works great for those of us that might want there to be a Rudy Awakening in November.

Lets hope McCain takes down Romney in New Hampshire next.

Technically he isn't black though, isn't he malado? Or bi-racial for the PR crowd.

I tell you if Obama had a little more experience I think he would give Hillary a run for her money. I tell you though every time I hear an Obama speech I cringe he really has no idea what he is doing and no idea what he would be dealing with in the middle east. They would eat him alive.

As long as it is not Clinton or Romney I am happy. Some of the people Romney has working for him are less than savory.

I don't care for any politician that has an overly religious agenda. I'll just leave it at that.

Here is a button that they had in Iowa

“DO YOU MISS CLINTON?” over a picture of the couple in front of the White House. “VOTE FOR MRS. CLINTON ‘08?

Senator Clinton, indirectly, is trying to take credit for the years that MR Clinton wa in the White House. Also, during her speeches, Mrs Clinton claims to have 35 years experience in politics :roll: :lol:
