How Much Does Iowa Really Mean Anyway?
Not much in the grand scheme of things anyway. In 2004 John Kerry didn’t do well in Iowa or New Hampshire. In 2000, New Hampshire almost broke George W. Bush’s back. But yet political junkies like me always give these two races so much weight. But why?
To be honest I don’t really know.
In Iowa, anyone can vote for anyone. All you have to do is attend a Caucus meeting and you get a vote. I’m not even sure if there is any requirement to be a resident. A couple of weeks ago there was a report that the Dems were flooding Iowa with staffers. The speculation was that they intended on attending these caucuses and voting. How credible that is I’m not sure but there was the report.
