Re: publicans

With apologies, I have revised my previous post. I did not realize the rules for the Republican side in the Iowa caucuses are not the same as for the Democrats--for the Republicans, the caucus procedure is a straight vote. Not making enemies matters far less for them--and Romney's strategy makes more sense.

I think I'll stick with my predictions anyway, just with less justification: Huckabee wins, Romney second, McCain comes third. We'll see in a few hours.
