Huckabee Wins Iowa

The first step to the Republican nomination has been taken as Gov. Huckabee has won the Iowa Caucuses. In spite of opposition from many of the traditional conservative power-brokers such as Limbaugh, Hannity, etc., Huckabee's message resonated with Iowa's conservative base and he moves on with the win he sought.

Furthermore I think this shows that Mitt Romney's misleading mudslinging not only failed him, but has exposed the weakness of his support. He outspent Huckabee by millions in Iowa and came away with precious little from it. Romney now faces a struggle against Senator McCain to win New Hampshire.
