Iowa is a big deal for some candidates. If a person is lagging in the national polls and makes a very good showing in Iowa they will be all over the news and it will help them get free publicity and raise more money. In the last election Kerry used Iowa to come out of nowhere and launch his campaign. They are a very conservative state though, so it is no wonder a guy like Huckabee is doing well. He needs this to show the rest of the nation that is outside the bible belt that he is a legit contender. I think, ultimately, the race will move on to more progressive states and he will falter there, but for guys like him Iowa is a big deal.
