Edwards seems to dominate internet polls, but then the internet tubes let folks read about whomever they wish instead of the normal media force feed. There has been a tremendous disparity in the coverage in the media, with Hillary and Obama getting the lion's share and Edwards getting overlooked until very recently.
Of course now that Kucinich has thrown his Iowa support to Obama, I guess that means Edwards is toast anyway.
It will be interesting to see how accurate the Iowa polls have been. I suspect they have had a hard time determining how to sample likely caucus-goers. It's an added layer of difficulty compared to a primary.

It will come down to who has the best people working the caucus rooms. In 2000 that was Kerry, hands down. This year I suspect it's Clinton and Edwards that have the best organizations in the most precincts. Regardless, it'll be fun to watch.
I suspect that Huckabee won't do anywhere near as well as expected. I just don't see how his ground game could possibly be that good. McCain will do shockingly well.

Romney does have an edge in organization. He's spent millions to get it. It should be close between Huckabee and Romney. The others fight it out for three thru...
The Republican and Democratic results will be interesting to see.

I think Hill will win by a nose. The differences shouldn't be enough to matter, but the innumerate media won't care that only a few percentage points of unrepresentative caucus-goers in an unrepresentative state will support one candidate over another. They'll be touting the horse race.

I just saw this turn of events. I am surprised.

Limbob has all but unendorsed Huckabee. Perhaps the GOP religious right/business coalition is crumbling?
