Well, it's officially past Thanksgiving and now is when the general public REALLY starts to pay attention to this race. We're stepping up our efforts at Iowans for Romney (our traffic has been increasing greatly) and I've noticed more posts and comments to other Romney blogsites as well.

Romney's road to the nomination has always been a strong showing with frequent wins in early states. Iowa is where it all starts folks . . . and Mitt needs a strong showing. I invite you to come show support for Mitt over at Iowans for Romney frequently. Over the weekend I'm going to be updating our blogroll with links to relevant Iowa political blogs. I also will be following those blogs more frequently and linking to them as appropriate (first installment is here)

We've got coverage of Romney's stop at the University of Iowa to discuss his healthcare plan here and here (with photos of the event courtesy of my co-blogger, Keith Steurer)

Prominent Iowan columnist/author Charles Offenburger sees Mitt as the man who has what it takes to win the GOP nomination AND the general election.

A couple of posts about Huckabee

• Fred Thompson campaign attacks Huckabee for fibbin (AGAIN) about his record on Fox News Sunday.
• Commenters weigh in about Huckabee and the excitement of the MSM about his surge.

Finally, a Tancredo supporter challenged us to produce any evidence that Romney's been tough on illegal immigration . . . and so we responded.
