This is no more welcome than the spam text message I got on my cell phone yesterday from somebody named Brianna who wants a date.

I am now reading and will be doing a post on Clinton retaking a solid lead in New Hampshire. Also note that GOPers are starting to fear a brokered convention, however remote the prospect of that will be (you hear about this every few years but it has seldom happened in recent history). Note the poem by Michael Silverstein on the race...he also echoes some who wonder if the Democratic race could come down to this.

That can be pretty significant given the peculiar structure of the Democratic Iowa caucuses. I think the odds of an Edwards victory there are pretty good whatever the polls say. An Edwards victory in Iowa followed by a Clinton victory in New Hampshire followed by an Obama victory in South Carolina could set up a pretty interesting situation.
