John Kerry has been named the winner of the Iowa Caucuses. John Edwards of North Carolina came in second followed by Howard Dean and Dick Gephardt. (Gephardt made it official by dropping out of the race after finishing with only 11 percent of the vote.) Is it any coincidence that that two most good-looking candidates won? Apparently Edwards was rewarded for his style of not making personal attacks. It also looks as though Dean was penalized for his inability to make a decent pancake.

I am once again officially on the John Kerry bandwagon again. I’ll dig the sign out of the garage just as soon as it warms up a little bit.
