Kerry-ed Away

They are declaring John Kerry to be the winner in the Iowa Caucus. There had been some expectation of this result, but it still seems surprising in light of the buzz about Dean. On the other hand, the winner of the 1992 Democratic Iowa Caucus was Tom Harkin, and he soon fell behind eventual Democratic candidate Bill Clinton, so Kerry's victory is far from decisive. But it does serve to make things a little more interesting.
