Huckabee and Obama win big--if possibly pyrrhic--victories in Iowa. Of the former, and his victory over Mitt Romney, Matt Lewis writes:

FOX is speculating there was a 46 percent Evangelical turnout in Iowa, which obviously benefited Huckabee. There didn't seem to be a whispering campaign, or any sort of anti-Mormon attacks, but there is no doubt that Christian-conservatives got behind Mike Huckabee in Iowa tonight.

Is there some deep-seated concerns about Romney's faith, or was this just a result of Mike Huckabee -- a former Baptist Pastor -- having better credentials?

Regardless, Romney’s path is now very difficult. He will have to contend with McCain in New Hampshire and Michigan, and Huckabee and Thompson in South Carolina ...

Oh I don't know--that nice Mr. Carville certainly captured a fair amount of media attention for himself, and look how well his candidate turned out...

Update: With his huge shinola-eating grin, John McCain looks like he's about to make a tasty snack out of Huckabee in New Hampshire.

More: Politico agrees, writing that in Iowa, Romney "played hard here and appears to have lost by a significant margin." And "with John McCain surging in New Hampshire and only four days to recover, the pressure is on."
