straw polling

fewer than 3% of the half million republicans in iowa played dress up the other day, and only around 3% of those proved unable to see through the mittster's slick willy impersonation (his points to the right) while handing michele bachmann her latest little plastic tiara. (tell me the obama folks weren't elated). for my money, the one thing the children of the corn got right was sporting for ron paul just 152 votes shy of the leader. yeah, he's affiliated with one of the national political rackets, but you can't dislike a guy who is so disliked by his own party for his propensity to speak the truth.

as an aside, i'm amused that though michele bachmann has the gender credentials that would otherwise qualify her to become the first lady to be elected president of these united states, we'd still be spared that historic "first gentleman" we've all been fearing all along. (oh, yes, marcus, you surely are).

That was a little subtle for me and I had to go to the video.  I would put this down as a maybe, at best.  There is so much we don't know about this area that I am distrustful of any definitive answers.

On the other hand, congrat to Michele Bachmann for her first place showing in this select selected subset of Iowa Republican voters.

As for me, it is still a wide open race, even with Tim Pawlenty having dropped out and Rick Perry having joined up.
