IOWA - HUCKABEE TAKES GOP

Huckabee is grining with the win. Romney was second, McCain and Thompson tied for third. Giuliani finished well behind Ron Paul despite all the early media attention. (USA Today)

The Washington Post claims “The race was dominated by the issue of immigration and the spectacle of a Baptist minister taking on a Mormon in a state with a large population of evangelical Christians.” (Washington Post)

From Medved: I believe he won in part due to the fact that he came across as the sunniest, most likeable, least angry candidate in the bunch. Obama’s victory also indicates that voters didn’t buy anger, rage, indignation – they preferred the most positive, uplifting, cheerful of the candidates. (Townhall)
