1. I'm anxious about Dean, but I have faith.

[Feanorcurufinwe]

2. I feel both confident and anxious

[Cuban_Liberal]

3. Edwards-leaning uncommitted, and confident.

Edwards gets his ticket punched out of Iowa tomorrow.

[DjTj]

4. me too.

The other candidates need to win, but Edwards cashes in if he just places or shows.

[EXE619K]

5. I'm firmly entrenched in the Dean camp but....

It'll be kinda cool to see Ed pull out a "Jesse Ventura"!
;-)

[Cuban_Liberal]

10. Dr. Dean is my 2nd choice.

I think they'll both be fine tomorrow.

:hi:

11. don't count on it

all the talk about organization does mean something. Edwards wins because he's going to be taken seriously for the first time. unless Geph takes number one, he's finished.

[Jackson Smith]

30. I like Edwards too!!

I love the momentum and support he's been getting. He deserves it.

[creativelcro]

6. Is there a 7 letter limit to last names ?

NO ? Then why do you keep calling Gephardt "Gep" ? Why not calling Edwards "Edw" ?

18. What about 'Dick'? LOL

Sorry but the last thing we need is another Dick in the WH.....especially one that's already gotten snookered by the chimp.

7. Just finished my last round of calls

I'm cautiously optimistic.

If turnout in the precinct is close to the previous turnout, we sweep.

We're locked for at least 35% of the delegates, up to triple turnout.

[Zynx]

8. Who are you supporting?

[Lobo_13]

14. Howard Dean, of course

Keep the faith, we're in good shape down here.

[Zynx]

19. Just checkin'

Make sure you win.

[spooky3]

9. how about an "other" choice?

I support Edwards, but am also ABB, and feeling neither confident nor anxious.

I'm happy Iowans seem to be getting to know and like Edwards. If he does anything but a distant fourth tomorrow, that is a great success, as he was pretty far back as recently as 10 days ago.

[jenk]

13. Edwards- confident

[Eloriel]

31. Confident of what?

Win, place or show?

21. you're right

I'm sorry. That was my evil twin butting in again.

17. Dean and Confident

Until a month or so ago Dean looked like he would only place second in Iowa if that. With the race this close I think it means very little.

If Dean were to lose badly it would be a blow, but I do NOT expect that. I expect that Dean will win due to his organizational and grassroots support.

I think New Hampshire is critical and I am confident but cautiously so there.

A complete loss might well hurt in New Hampshire -- but asd it goes now it looks like they will be dividing the cake pretty evenly and it comes down to NH.

Each candidate needs 15% to be a contender. All four seem to have that generally so it looks like a wash and therefore does not hurt Dean at all.

[Lobo_13]

22. A blowout would hurt

But it looks like the worst case scenario is that Dean comes in fourth.

Then you realize that the difference between first and fourth is likely to be less than 2%.

It's a horserace and whoever wins will do it by a nose.

[sandnsea]

20. Determined

What's happening around us isn't important, the continued work is. My sig line. That's where my head is.

[Cascadian]

23. Confident fro Dean!

eom

[Lady President]

24. Very, very anxious

I'm a nervous person by nature, but I admit I am really anxious. I think I had prepared myself for Kerry getting under 10% of the vote and his momentum, while great, is making feel nervous. I'm just hoping he's in the top three.

A news crew just left my house about an hour ago and I couldn't even answer the reporter's question about my predictions. All I could squeak out was something about Kerry doing much better than anyone would have anticipated two weeks ago. Lame answer, but at least I'm confident in that much.

[mlawson]

25. Edwards, and confident.

I have been watching politics long enough now (40+ years) to know a winner when I see one. Edwards has IT; the momentum will build, and carry him now. I have no doubt that KKKRove fears him the most for November.

[Renew Deal]

26. Everyone should be anxious except Edwards.

Edwards has already won.

[KaraokeKarlton]

27. Extremely Confident Dean will win big in Iowa

[dnbmathguy]

28. Gephardt, and confident

The polls mean little, and the four of them will probably end up only a few points away from each other. Still, I think Gep can pull it out in the end.

[Bucky]

29. I'm for Clark and I'm vicariously anxious for all of you. Damn Iowans!

Hee-hee. Of course I didn't vote in your poll since I wasn't invited. But I thought I'd still let you know.
