Obama did not get as much of a bump out of Iowa,
To the contrary, I think he got a sizable bump out of Iowa. Before his win, anyone would have called it shocking to think he would come within 2 points of Clinton in New Hampshire. Firewall, remember?

Don’t the racial demographics of Nevada, South Carolina, and Florida work in Obama’s favor?
South Carolina definitely. Florida, less so.
Not sure about Nevada. I predict Obama in SC and Clinton in FL.

I think both Clinton and Obama have already passed the “electability” test in the eyes of the Democratic electorate.
Certainly true for me.

My mom says Obama is going to go all the way,
Never, ever argue with your mother.
