I see that 28% of Iowa Republicans believe in being soft on crime, raising taxes, and being lenient toward illegal aliens.

I think Clinton won the nation over by playing saxophone on the Arsinio Hall show, Huck plays guitar, right ? America loves musicians....

When looking at Iowa one needs to bear in mind that a preacher, Pat Robertson, finished 2nd in the 1988 Iowa Caucuses. George H.W. Bush finished 3rd(Bob Dole won).

It was George H.W. Bush who won the GOP nomination.
