Reminder: Iowa Does Not Matter
Derek Hunter
I’m a big Ron DeSantis fan, but whoever he’s got advising his campaign has done him a huge disservice by focusing on Iowa. Even if he wins tomorrow, it means nothing. Iowa doesn’t pick winners. Iowa does not matter.
Quick: Which Republicans won Iowa in the last 3 Iowa Caucuses? If you said Ted Cruz, Rick Santorum, and Mike Huckabee, you need to get out of the house more often. You’d also be right. Remember any of their administrations? Hell, remember any of their general election campaigns?
The last time Iowa produced a nominee for Republicans was 2000 with George W. Bush, who came in just ahead of Steve Forbes and Alan Keys, so you can see the Iowa GOP has its finger on the pulse of...something that decidedly is not the party.
