Iowa: Where it all began
After a weekend of sometimes cynical, sometimes negative, and most often, contentious discussion around the Internet, an invitation to visit Iowa on January 3, 2008. This is where the journey began. Look at the faces; listen to the enthusiasm, and for a few minutes, forget about the wrangling over straw men and stalking horses.
It’s going to be a long week, full of spinning, outrageous statements, pushing to count all votes while leaving out 238,000 or so in Michigan and other folly. Dare to hope.
