Angela Winters, a black moderate blogger, writes about last night's Iowa caucuses: "So I called it. Huckabee and Obama, my favorite choices on each side, won in Iowa. I made a little mistake in saying that Clinton would come in second. She came in third and that's just icing on the cake for me. I bet her campaign manager had a fun night. Tell me again about inevitability? Last night showed us a couple of things. Republicans are scared. Iowa is a Red state and there were so many Dems there that they had to give up some of their caucus rooms due to fire code violations in the Blue caucus rooms. Tim Russert's task was to check on voters crossing party lines and they were overwhelmingly Republicans who voted for Obama. More than double the regular caucus voters came out which means that people really want something. Things are really going to change. I loved how Huckabee spent like $2.50 and beat Romney anyway. I loooove how Giuliani got about as much votes as I did. I love how young people voted. Now getting them to vote again in November is another thing. Obama's speech was really good. He falters in his speeches at times, but last night he was on Bill Clinton point. The media totally gives itself away with their love for this guy. They played up the Messiah image, going on and on about how its amazing to be part of something so special. Personally, saying over and over again that you're going to bring change isn't really special at all, but I'm still happy for him."
