1. My home town went for Edwards, over 50%. Bruce Braley (D) endorsed Edwards

Bruce is a trial lawyer, litigated lots of employment related cases and personal injury cases, he was elected in 2006, and the area is a strong labor union area.

2. Obama opening a little breathing room with 1108 reporting.

Senator Barack Obama : 34.81%
Senator John Edwards : 31.34%
Senator Hillary Clinton : 31.04%
Precincts Reporting: 1108 of 1781

At the expense of Hillary it appears.

4. If current trends continue Obama will go over 35 % and Hillary will be under 30 %.

It looks as if Obama was able to turn out the youth vote.

7. No landslide but a fairly solid win for Obama for a 3 way race. Looks like it will be a 6 point

margin at least and maybe a bit more. He is still gaining on both Edwards and Clinton.

8. Not impressive after the media pumped for a landslide.

The caucus system is flawed in that it promotes bandwagons.

9. Eye of the beholder. For a 3-way race a 6-7 point win is pretty impressive imo.

10. Looks like Obama will be over 37% and Edwards and Clinton both under 30%.

Biggest loser is Clinton. She poured a lot of money and time into Iowa.
