Obama wins Iowa!!!

and now he's up in New Hampshire by 10 points!

the exit polls for iowa were really interesting, too.

Turnout for Democrats was double that of 2008, and it was double the turnout to the Republican primary. In addition, the youth vote (ages 17-29) increased from 17% to 22%, and if turnout doubled then it really increased a lot. The youth voted overwhelmingly for Obama. Obama also carried women! Eat that, Hillary!
