Ice Shadows


First Three States

Numbers from Real Clear Politics:

  • Iowa: Ron Paul up by 3.5%
  • New Hampshire: Mitt Romney up by 13.0%
  • South Carolina: Newt Gingrich up by 16.0%

Potentially three different winners in the first three states?

And one of them is Ron Paul? And another is Newt Gingrich?

Please, please, please let it keep being this much fun!
