1. So Kos continues the trend of the MSM with only top tier candidates?
Fuck you Kos.

2. Well, that is his opinion
If he believes that the results will come out this way, let him say it.
I will let you know tomorrow whether or not KOS's predictions were correct :)

12. His interpretation of Obama's recent remarks were
equally full of s***!

Still, people put a lot of stock into his insertion of Kerry and Gore into Obama's comment. Go figure!

People will learn the Iowa caucus outcome soon enough.

6. Wait and see...
Tomorrow I can eat crow if necessary, but for now I think Biden will surprise. And I will be watching for myself, live - online.

11. Its only 15% in a particular caucus. Kucinich, Biden, Richardson and Dodd
May all get 15% in particular caucuses

Uncommitted may as well

8. If any other candidates polled in double digits
they'd be in the mix.

This is about the 1-2-3 finish, not who comes in sixth.

7. I'd be cool with an Obama-Edwards-Clinton finish.
Obama-Edwards-Biden-Clinton would be so much better though. :)

10. a kos poll? wow....when lott retired kos did a poll here in Ms.
and Kos reported republican roger wicker would defeat any democrat.....Now I knew that was wrong as wicker is not that widely known in the state and former gov. musgrove has ran three statewide campaigns. So, the leading newspaper The Clarion Ledger hired them a polling organization Greenberg Quinlan Rosner and here are their results: Musgrove a 48 to 34 percent lead over Wicker.....Now what does this say about the great polling organization at KOS? Nothing, cause their polling is as whack as the zogby interactive polling...

I take no stock in this poll.

And Kos has become a big pain in the neck anyways.

14. I only hope he's wrong and we're not saddled with Obama. As Mondale said
"Where's the beef?" There's no "there" there. He's all cliche's and empty platitudes.

19. You could up the irony quotient of your post if you included:
"All hat and no cattle"
"All talk and no action"
"All steak and no sizzle"
and so on.

23. Entrance: Obama 31%, Edwards 29%, Hillary 27%; Final: Edwards 34%, Obama 33%, Hillary 25%
The last three reliable polls have been pretty consistent:

Obama 34%, Edwards 33%, Hillary 32% - InsiderAdvantage (1/2-1/2)
Obama 31%, Edwards 27%, Hillary 24% - Zogby (12/30-1/2)
Obama 32%, Edwards 29%, Hillary 27% - StrategicVision (12/28-12/30)

There is probably a slight over-sampling of Obama supporters because he is relying so heavily on first-time caucus participants and independents. The entrance poll will be about Obama 31%, Edwards 29%, Hillary 27%.

Based on the second choice support, I expect the final result will be about Edwards 34%, Obama 33%, Hillary 25%.
