NJaso,
I wouldn't be too confident with Iowa going Republican. Popular GOvernor Vilsack is for Culver and the Secretary of State has a name known statewide, unlike Nussle.
Nussle also has the backing of an unpopular President. When President Bush came to Des Moines last week the protesters could be seen far and wide. At least 5,000 came out to disrupt his $500 a plate dinner by having a "chicken soup for the needy" publicity stunt.
Iowa will be the race to watch this year in my opinion.
Well stated.
