Iowa Shmiowa

[mtnsnake]

Who cares about all these silly polls that flip flop every other hour? If I were one of these top 3 candidates, I'd rather go into Iowa trailing slightly, just so there was no shock effect if I lost. The only thing that matters in Iowa is if there is a shocking turn of events, like someone coming from behind to win who was down by 15 points in the polls. Unless that happens, Iowa will only be remembered for being the first state to hold the primary, nothing more and nothing less. That and its measly 7 electoral votes.

Iowa primary. Losing Iowa is NOT losing the nomination.

Thank you.
