Here's Rudy campaign manager Mike DuHaime. Two keys -- "wide open" and "purple states red:"
"We congratulate Mike Huckabee on a hard-fought victory in Iowa. This race is wide open and we will continue to run a national primary campaign designed to win the number of delegates necessary to become the Republican nominee. Rudy is the only Republican candidate who can not only win the primary and general elections, but will turn purple states red."

My recent predictions for Iowa were correct on this blog by conferring with my internal sources of the campaigns....Now I give you the info on Rudy....
Rudy will not win NH or SC
Rudy polls numbers will have him to soon conceding Florida which was his "Firewall State" as new polls reflect these numbers.
(Panhandle problems in Florida)
Rudy has money problems!
Bye-bye Rudy

Conservative "Panhandle" in Florida has now become Rudy's biggest problem and nightmare. Hence, There is now talk of Rudy possibly losing Florida. Former NYer's need to bail Rudy out in Florida to save him.
A loss in Florida would be the Final Torpedo in Rudy's ship at that point......Come Florida, Rudy's ship will have already taken three in the engine room and will be listing big time......Rudy would be done if NY transplants do not come through. Rudy is already toast in NH & SC.
Finally, Rudy is out of money.
Thompson proves second breath last night and second life come SC.
Stay tuned.
