Iowa

Today’s graph from the Iowa Prediction Markets. He’s been up at least once before.

Also, for what it’s worth, Dick Morris calls the primary race for Obama:

I believe that Barack Obama will defeat Hillary and win the Democratic
nomination. I think that this weekend’s victories in states as diverse
as Washington State, Louisiana, Nebraska, and Maine illustrates his
national appeal and demonstrates Hillary’s inability to win in states
without large immigrant and Latino populations. Hillary’s
results on Super Tuesday, which amounted to a draw with Obama, will be
her high water mark and will represent the closest she will ever come
to the party nomination.

And don’t bet on all the super delegates staying hitched to Hillary.
These folks are politicians, half of them public office holders who are
really good at reading the handwriting on the wall and really bad at
gratitude for past favors.

Since 2004, I have predicted that Hillary Clinton would be the
nominee. But, given the consistently amazing performance of Obama, his
superior organizational and fund-raising skills, his inspiration of
young people, and the flat and completely uninspiring performance by
Hillary, it looks to me like it will be Obama as the Democratic
nominee.

    If on Tuesday he get both Wisconsin and his home state of Hawaii he will of won 10 in a row…. Then he has time on the ground in Texas and Ohio which is really the key for him. If he has time to get out and meet the people they pick him over Clinton…
