Iowa Still Wide Open

Iowa Still Wide Open: Nate Silver takes a first crack at forecasting the winner of the Iowa caucuses and conclude although Newt Gingrich "still has the lead, Iowa looks to be fairly wide open with as many as five plausible winners."



"Right now, Mr. Gingrich's win probability is just under 50 percent, but Mr. Paul has gained ground and now has a 28 percent chance of winning. Mr. Romney, Gov. Rick Perry of Texas and Michele Bachmann are all between about 5 and 10 percent, while Rick Santorum has about a 2 percent chance of winning based on the current surveys."
