Iowa: Obama 18,500 - Clinton 100

There's really no way to tell what impact, if any, it might have in Iowa's upcoming caucus, but with Obama already taking a slight lead in recent polls, this is what Iowa voters will be reading on Obama and Hillary Clinton today.

Oprah packs 'em in - crowd: 18,500

and

Clinton brings Mom, Daughter to Iowa - crowd: 100

For now, the O-show is the top item on Google News with over 1,200 stories. And, the Washington Times headlines, Hillary's lead in NH eroding, while suggesting it's sliding in South Carolina, as well. The O-show will be in both NH and SC today.

It'll be interesting to see what impact all this may have on the latest polls. But for now, at least, it's fair to say Hillary hasn't had a good couple of weeks. But it's the first two weeks of January that matter most.

Well now it is available in time for the primaries, the stake in the heart of the Big Lie. This ought to help B. Hussein Obama's candidacy just as much as book merchant Winfrey's support.

Interesting that the article only notes the attendance a few paragraphs into the story and then goes back to explaining Clinton's message.

When the "Frontrunner" comes to town and draws less than 100 people that IS the story.

I caught a bit of the Oprah stumping for Barack on cable yesterday. He should henceforth be called "MO-bama", as in momentum. I'll take an honest lib against the canniving Clintons any day. Either one would, well should, lose to any of the Rep's with the exception of the Huckster.
