At the end of the day, no matter how it's recounted, it will break roughly even. I love and respect the caucus process in Iowa. See, and I don't have to say it, because they voted already.

I worry very, very much about an isolated country. That's what makes me nervous. Russia lives in the world. China lives in the world.
