I would be embarrassed for Iowans if it were anything less. I happen to have worked in Iowa for a while in 1998 and people I befriended seemed very intelligent. I think they will realize that Huckabee is using religion to obscure his socialist agenda. I don't think Iowans want a welfare-warfare state more than anyone else in the country does.

As for the polls, I think they're flawed, and I won't recite the usual arguments for why; but I also don't think Ron Paul is an invisible top tier candidate either, so I think a safe compromise is to assume that the margin of error should be included, thus making Ron at 11-12% in reality. Since Giuliani's pretty much abandoned Iowa, this makes Ron Paul very viable at making a third place in the caucus, and this is all that Ron Paul really needs. 7% is perfect, actually.
