I don't know if anything is as boring as the Iowa Republican straw poll. It is a pathetic event where people with no prayer of being commander in chief pay busloads of Iowan wingnuts to vote for them in a meaningless, non-binding wankfest of a poll. Here are the results:
Candidate Votes Pct. No one should care about these results, but they will have some consequences. Fmr. Gov. Tommy Thompson promised to drop out if he didn't finish in at least second place. I guess we can say goodbye to his pointless campaign. The results also provide further evidence that John McCain is no more likely to win this nomination than Joe Lieberman was to win the Democratic nomination in 2004. I guess popularity on the Imus in the Morning show doesn't translate into popularity among grassroots activists. I don't think the results provide much comfort for Duncan 'Two Kinds of Fruit' Hunter, and Sam Brownback lost out to Mike Huckabee in the 'thou art more Christian than thou' contest. Overall, I'd say 'who cares' about this stupid event, but the whole asinine spectacle gives me a case of the giggles.
