Iowa Caucus Tomorrow

The last poll I saw had the top three as Mitt Romney, Ron Paul and Rick Santorum, all within 5 points of each other.  The next three were Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann.  Jon Huntsman is not participating and has even dissed Iowa, but I'm sure he'll get a vote or two.

So how's the weather?

If Mitt Romney wins, it's over.  He'll get New Hampshire, and then South Carolina will throw up a roadblock, but then Mitt will get Florida, and that's all she wrote.

If Ron Paul wins, heads will explode.  We'll hear more about Ron Paul being a racist because of his newsletter.  We'll hear as president, he would roll over so Iran can pet his tummy, and he won't lift a finger when (not if, when!) Iran annihilates Israel.

Meanwhile, Rick Santorum wants to attack Iran now.  Not in January 2013.  Now!  If Santorum wins, I propose the GOP come together and face facts, that Iowa needs to stop going first.  Give it to Missouri or Ohio.  Personally I think it should rotate every four years the order of the states having their primaries/caucuses.  Have a lotto every four years, the spring after the election.  Gives each state plenty of time to prepare.
