John McCain Will Be the Next President
Hey... I'm as surprised as the rest of you. But when the final ballot comes down and I'm choosing between him and the other options... damn right, he looks pretty good. And I'm choking down massive amounts of crow just to make that observation.
How we get from the current Republican field confusion to Republican Nominee McCain? Let alone President McCain? Well that will be quite a story in itself. But I'm in Iowa at the moment. So... I guess I'm as much an on-the-spot correspondent as whatever Matt Lauer is relying upon. And no... this is not a joke. I'm seriously seeing this as the way things are coming down.
Huckabee seems to remain the main guy in this locale. So a basic reminder... I'm not predicting McCain to win Iowa. Just that less impressive thing called the Republican nomination.
And yes... to reiterate... I'm surprised. But I really do see that coming now, barring an event more jarring than the Bhutto assasination.
