Iowa Changes Everything

After last night's Iowa Caucus results, some are saying the GOP is now in total disarray, and others are expressing shock that the once seemingly unstoppable Clinton train has gone off the rails, with the New York Times calling her performance a startling setback. (THIRD place?) And not that anybody noticed or cares, but both Joe Biden and Chris Dodd ended their candidacies after yesterday's dismal showing.

The final results, in case you spent last night on another planet:

Democrats
Barack Obama - 37.6%
John Edwards - 29.7%
Hillary Clinton - 29.5%
Bill Richardson - 2.1%
Joe Biden - 0.9%
Others - 0.1%
Chris Dodd - 0.0%
Mike Gravel - 0.0%
Dennis J. Kucinich - 0.0%

Republicans
Mike Huckabee - 34.3%
Mitt Romney - 25.3%
Fred Thompson - 13.4%
John McCain - 13.1%
Ron Paul - 10.0%
Rudy Giuliani - 3.5%
Duncan Hunter - 0.4%
Tom Tancredo - 0.0%

Huckabee, who I'd hardly given a second thought to until last month, is really starting to worry me. With the GOP side in such a mess (Giuliani SIXTH!), look for Bloomberg to announce any day now.
