Barack Obama won the Iowa Caucus tonight, receiving 38% of the delegates.
To say that we are happy about the results is a huge understatement. I think Mike and I had not really admitted to ourselves how invested we are in Senator Obama’s campaign. We haven’t been able to be as active as we would like, but clearly our hearts are in it all the way, as evidenced by our tears as we watched his acceptance speech. I think we were both a little surprised by how much this meant to us.
I know, I know. We are total geeks.

Jen,
I am not a huge Obama fan (my horse didn’t get in this race). But I must say Sen. Obama’s speech was certainly one of the best I have heard. It even made this jaded old bastard’s heart warm for a few moments.
Glad to hear all is well with ya’all.
Cheers,
Rob

So, educate me. What’s next?
(Although I admit at this point as long as the next president is a non female Democrat, I will be content.)

I thought it was 39% of caucus goers, which was a record high of over 200 thousand people.
So you’d be happy to know I caucused for Obama
Yes, we live in Iowa. I assure you, there’s more here than corns.
I found my way here because Dawn left your URL on my blog comments.
