Ok Amy was having a pretty good night but now has even a better chance [View all]

It was clear early on last night that Amy was doing much better then her Poll numbers showed. But it didn't appear it was quite good enough to retain viability in a lot of precincts that the media was there for but it was really close. What is more it also appears that the numbers reported from various sources do not really show much of the Rural areas.

But most interesting from all the early coverage was that she was doing so well that the media really was paying attention.

With her getting out first with her speech she was able to really set a positive message. What is more Buttigieg played it wrong.

So ow with New Hampshire looming bigger Buttigieg by claiming victory has set expectations way to high without a real narrative to back it up and so plays right into the arrogance narrative that has been developing. That and the fact that it looked like Amy had caught Joe reshapes the experience narrative,

She actually will end up gaining from Iowa and the mess it has become.
