With Thursday’s vote bearing down on us, the well-coiffed gentleman from North Carolina must be relieved to learn that John Edwards has earned the Democratic Iowa Caucus endorsement from yours truly.

His recent firebrand-ed populism and well-established no hairdresser-left-behind policy has won me over.

As far as New Hampshire is concerned, I might jump ship to Mike Gravel. Politics is a fickle mistress.

On the Republican side, the editorial team here at Guilty Carnivore is firmly ensconced in the candidacy of one Mike Huckabee. His core belief that man and dinosaur together roamed the earth six thousand years ago clearly captures the imagination of idealism (and wisely secures the “Cha-Ka” vote).

As a side note, what the fuck is a “caucus”? And why do I feel ashamed whenever the term is uttered?
