8. Let The People, Not The Corporate Media Decide
Howard Dean just swatted down the bobblehead on CNN muttering talking points. He said that tonight someone will emerge who worked just a little harder and that the debate will now shift to New Hampshire and on to several more states...in the next few weeks we'll see a candidate emerge.

IMHO Iowa is over-rated as past winners have not always gone on to win the nomination. The caucuses are more like an obstacle course...it weeds out the real candidate from the issue ones. The "conventional wisdom" is the best organization will win tonight...but even that's a push. All three major candidates have built solid operations and there's no indicator which group's people will turn out. If they all do, it's gonna be a fun night...if one faulters, then let's see who gobbles up the lion's share.

I think the turning point this year could be Nevada as we could see different candidates win different states...and this would be the prelude to Tsunami Tuesday. The momentum coming out of that primary could be what determines the entire nomination.
