2nd Place

[MAS117]

In Iowa, John Kerry poses a new threat to Rep. Gephardt for second place. Kerry has been surging and providing more money and staff to Iowa. It all comes down to Gephardts labor endorsements. Dean will come in 1st in Iowa, but if John Kerry overtakes Dick for 2nd it gives him a boost in NH. Gen. Clark has been surging in NH possibly taking over the 2nd place spot from Kerry. The Dean seems to be worrying about Clark in NH, but if Kerry wins 2nd in Iowa that puts Clarks effort in NH potentily down the drain. These surges by Clark in NH, and Kerry in Iowa have happened only recently. In NH the new poll shows Clark only 3 points ahead of Kerry. Tell me what you think.

If you take a look at Dean's numbers, they arent going up, there are staying the same. I wouldnt really call it a surge (I'll retract my last comment - Hey i look like dean). but kerry is moving up in iowa and could take 2nd and clark in nh is moving up.
