I remember Iowa: the caucus in pictures

It's showtime in Iowa, with the caucus voting set to begin in mere hours. The presidential candidates are making their last ditch appeals to John Q. Iowan, speeches and television interviews are wrapping up, voters are braving freezing temperatures to make their voices heard, and we here at 23/6 are sitting comfortably in our warm offices making fun of it all.

But not all of us on the payroll are willing to sit on the sidelines. Reporter-at-large Kevin Bleyer is toughing it out in Iowa, sticking his lens where the sun don't shine—Des Moines—to bring you all the action from the Iowa caucus.


Crossing the border into Iowa. Despite being assured of the irrepressible friendliness of the average Iowan, none line the highway to greet me. Discouraged, I press on. (Click for more)

Hillary Clinton's videographer selects the Gaussian blur mode


Muslims aren't the only women who prefer the veil.

In a new campaign ad, the 60-year-old Hillary Clinton manages to lament the last seven years of the Bush Administration without looking as if she's lived through it yet. The wrinkles are gone, thanks to a blurry, soft-focus video technique patented by Barbara Walters (who hosts The View every day as if she is still alive).

Hillary may protest when she's accused of playing the gender card, but would a male candidate get away with going to such extraordinary lengths to look young? And furthermore, would they be able to pull it off with such panache? Take a look at the "youthened" versions of a few candidates, and judge for yourself.

The Iowa caucus: insignificant, yet overly complicated

Enjoy it, Hawkeye State, because in a few hours we're gonna forget all about you for another four years. Everybody knows the Iowa caucus is the first major event of each party's presidential nomination process. Everybody knows the results often determine which candidates remain in the race and which ones will carpool with Dennis Kucinich back to Washington. But nobody really knows exactly how the Iowa caucus works.

Do Iowans count up ballots to choose a candidate like most civilized states? No. Do they have some sort of electoral college system? Not really. Are the voting procedures similar to those portrayed in the adult film classic "Iowa Cock-us"? Sort of. Is there really an adult film called "Iowa Cock-us"? There oughta be.

Apparently, even some Iowans are confused as to how their own crazy system works. 23/6 obtained a memo, sent earlier this week by the Iowa Elections Board to each of the state's 1784 precincts. Follow these guidelines, and your precinct's caucus will be well on its way toward nominating top tier candidates like Walter Mondale and Edmund Muskie.

Oh, that's just great. Mr. Populist can't be bothered to help me get my keys out of my locked car. Typical. "Two Americas" is right.

LOL.

lol!

The little owl was introduced into New Zealand from Germany by the Otago Acclimatisation Society between 1906 and 1910 and is now widespread in farmland and towns in Nelson, Marlborough, Canterbury, Otago and Southland.
