Update on Iowa, etc

You remember the Iowa straw poll?  The one Romney won, oh, lost to Santorum.


The latest report is the returns from Ames, Iowa were lost. Eight precincts vanished. Ames, by the way, is Paul's stronghold, at about 50% in the polls.  In addition, there were 131 precincts with erroneous counts. Of note, the delegates have not been selected; I am thinking delegates will be very annoyed.


The next four states to pick delegates will come quickly and they are all caucus states.  


Media coverage will ratchet up regarding the Virginia contest on Super Tuesday.  This race will be the ultimate non-Romney (Paul) goes one-on-one with Romney. Where do conservatives go?  I expect Paul may win. Especially, if he is constantly beat up. This is large state with 37 delegates. 


Apparently, and who can figure these things out, Santorum and Gingrich are mathematically unable to win. They are not in several states. Gingrich purposely avoided Missouri.  


Final tidbit. Delegates are released after one vote at the Republican Convention. Now, that will be interesting. Just like the old days, as I expect we will not see a winner on the first ballot.


I can can visualize the floor rallys, now.
