Now what?

I promise not to go political very often. But the events of Thursday night in Iowa can't be ignored.

It strikes me that Huckabee and Obama's wins are a direct shot at the status quo. The old guard of both parties don't want these two to be battling in November. By next week, when the New Hampshire primary is done, they could be back in the pack.

And I understand this is merely little Iowa speaking -- just one small voice in the wilderness.

But there is a wind of change blowing across the land. Like him or not, the current president was a product of the same old political system that has produced so many others.

These two guys don't fit any specific political mold. And, if one is to believe what they read on websites, don't fit a lot of people's molds.

Instead of clarifying the issue, it looks more complicated to me tonight.
