This has to have the Republican party shaking, trembling and quivering with fear. Not only did one of the anti-establishment candidates win (e.g. Huckabee), they were destroyed in the overall vote.
From The Group News Blog:
Total Voter Turnout (approximate)
Percentage of total vote
24.5% Obama
20.5% Edwards
19.8% Clinton
11.4% Huckabee (R)
I can't wait to see how the numbers turn out in New Hampshire. They do not have dedicated evangelicals in that state on the scale of Iowa. That was what propelled Huckabee to victory last night, now the hottest ticket in the small state of New Hampshire is John McCain. If you can tell me something thrilling about that old fart, it would be shocking.
