Well the expected Iowa and New Hampshire combined vote amounts to about 0.0015% of the planned vote November 2008, so why is it problematic for Fox to point out the relative insignificance of those two primaries?

Then why did Fox News spend millions to cover them.

If Fox News did not think that Iowa and New Hampshire were important, then they should have decided that months ago.

Because December is always a slow news month, and insignificant or not, people like the drama of the primaries.

That doesn’t answer the question, but then that’s as close as I’m going to get so... okay.

The Iowa Caucus isn’t worth didley. That’s the long and the short of it, and if FoxNews wants to point that out, it’s okay by me.
