4. This is it
And with Dean's lead in delegates, we are probably looking at the first real dose of social-democratic reforms in this country since the 60s, including Universal Healthcare!

5. Sorry.
Only delegates won in the primaries are committed to the first ballot. The rest are free to vote for anyone.

Many here wanted the lesser candidates to quit. This is wrong because all the factions need to vote at least once and know that their fav. had an equal shot. I think this makes for a high turnout and alot of excitement.

We have only seen the trailers. The big show is upon us.

GO DEMS!!

6. I'm liking this trend
What with Iowa's large turnout last week. Half of the Iowa caucus
goers were first time participants. Shrub is dealing with some pissed-off people from coast to coast and WILL go down about nine months from now.
