In case you missed it… Mike Huckabee won big on the Republican side and Barack Obama won big on the Democratic side in Iowa last night.
I think most of the anchors were going with the fact that both of these guys are outsiders – not your typical establishment. I can see that and agree. Even the campaign folks for Huckabee and Obama seemed to be heading with that spin.
The laughing point of the night however was MSNBC’s interview of Howard Dean, former Presidential candidate and now DNC Chairman. He kept working the spin for the DNC. “As DNC Chairman, I can’t support one side or the other but look at the huge turnout…. yadi yadi yadi.”
Brian Bailey pointed out on his Twitter feed that even with a huge turnout for the Democrats – 70% of the Democrats voted against Hillary. That’s worse that Gov. Rick Perry’s last election in Texas.

Huckabee will be everywhere this morning (media wise) – here’s his schedule:

ABC’s “Good Morning America” with host Diane Sawyer
CBS’ “The Early Show” with anchor Harry Smith
NBC’s “Today Show” with co-hosts Matt Lauer, Meredith Vieira, Ann Curry and Al Roker
CNN’s “Morning in America” with host Kiran Chetry
MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” with co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski
CNBC’s “Squawk Box” with host Carl Quintanilla
FOX NEWS’ “Fox and Friends” with co-hosts Steve Doocy & Brian Kilmeade
CNN “International Report” with co-anchor Anjali Rao

Saturday’s double header debate should be a lot of fun. Wonder if I can get Laurie to tune in as well?
