"So, the first real test of the 2008 Presidential campaign came and
went in Ames, Iowa. And what did we really learn? Is Romney the new frontrunner?
Not really. He allegedly spent a ton of money to outpace Huckabee and Brownback.
I know he's supposed to be an excellent business man, but I'm not sure he's
making good investments. No, what we really learned this past weekend is that
the GOP is depressed. The turnout in Iowa for this straw poll was pathetic, much
worse than the last competitive primary in 1999. This is good news for the
Democratic nominee, as long as they don't screw it up:"
Does a low turn out for republicans in the Iowa straw poll mean that there might also be a low turnout for Republicans in the general election. A low Republican turnout would increase the odds for the Democrats. It isn't unusual for people to stay home when they don't have someone they believe in, and the Republicans aren't happy with their choices.
