ALL IOWA, ALL THE TIME
As the news networks here begin their all-night coverage of the Iowa Caucuses, I know I should be getting excited and wishing I was in Des Moines rather than Washington DC.
Frankly, though, in a nation of 300 million people it's difficult to get worked up about who 100,000-odd Mid Western farmers (pursued by a similar number of journalists....and those are just the ones from the BBC) pick as their Democratic presidential candidate.
Anyway, there are still 288 days to go until the election. I don't want my excitement levels to peak too early.
Doesn't that flag look a little bit......French?
