Preacher Wins Iowa GOP Caucus
Former Arkansas Gov. and Baptist preacher Mike Huckabee won the GOP Caucus in Iowa, as evangelicals turned out in force and voted against Mitt Romney (a Mormon). However, Rudolf Giuliani skipped the state, planning to focus on Florida instead. Liberal spin masters hope Huckabee will continue to stay on top, or that Sen. John McCain will gain in the next primary, since both candidates are the most liberal of the GOP line up, but it's unclear if this first vote will have any lasting effect in the next several primaries. Democrats seem to favor Huckabee in general, since they can smear him in the general election using his sermons on creationism, gay marriage, and feminism. Conservative Republicans are non-plussed by his soft stance on illegal immigration, since he proposed giving scholarships to illegals. As the front runner, he will have to dodge a lot of arrows from both sides. Meanwhile, Sen. Obama won the Democrat caucus, leaving Hillary Clinton in 3rd place. See Chick's BUSTED.
