Giuliani lays it on the Iowa table

After spending months trying to downplay Iowa, the Giuliani campaign is quickly trying to catch up.

I think this tells us that the whole "expectations" push, that Giuliani could ride unscathed losing Iowa, NH, and SC, has not been well received.

(It does make me wonder again about those anti-Mormon calls which appear to have begun right when Giuliani decided he needed to compete in Iowa and NH.

Or you might take the theory that the Romney campaign is behind the calls in an effort to inoculate themselves against a later attack.)

And, another source says McCain is writing off Iowa.
