Why is it that Joe Trippi knew Dean was going to lose in Iowa, didn't go with him to Iowa and didn't even return his phone calls when Dean was there? Answer that...

Yes, I was there in Iowa (all over the state for a two week period) and saw and heard from people regarding getting two and three copies of Dean literature (from the campaign) a day. Phone calls from the campaign...sometimes 5 a day...people showing up and knocking on their door even though people had yard signs for other candidates on their lawn or cars...

Some of these excuses about Dean people being told the wrong place to vote is dishonest. There was coverage on the local stations where to vote, newspapers that had the locations listed and if someone was curious, they could call any campaign office and find out. So any whining about the fact that people had no idea were to go or where mislead is a bit silly.

If anyone has actual documented proof about Iowans and the "party hacks" somehow stole the Iowa caucus from Dean, I'd be glad to look at it. But if it's all poor sports hearsay, leave me out of it.

Iowa was one election. Are the same excuses regarding New Hampshire and other states the same?
