Well they were interesting... sort of. I think the big lesson to take from the caucuses is just how divided the GOP is right now. Normally the Republican presidential nominee is pretty much locked up before the anything happens in Iowa, but this year there is some uncertainty. I think that's a really great thing as it could keep more of the candidates in the race longer and allow voters to form stronger attachments to the candidates they support. This, of course, could make it harder for them to support a candidate in the general election if their candidate doesn't win the primaries, but hey, if there is one thing you can say about Republicans it's that they don't like to compromise, and darn-it they shouldn't have to compromise in a presidential election either.
So here is my suggestion to all of my Republican friends. If you don't like the Republican who gets the nomination, simply get your favorite candidate to run as an independent. If they won't just write them in when the general election comes around. This way you don't have to compromise and not only will you be able to say NO! to Obama but you can say NO! to what ever waffling, wishey washy, soft on communism, gay loving, tax and spend Republican gets the nomination. Or maybe you should just say NO! to the whole mess of them and stay home and not vote at all, that will show em!
