"To win Iowa and New Hampshire would be a trophy many a politician has failed to attain.
President George W. Bush lost New Hampshire after winning Iowa in 2000. In 1980, his father lost the state after winning Iowa. Eight years later, the senior George Bush won New Hampshire after losing Iowa to former Sen. Bob Dole of Kansas.
Kerry wants both states. And although his campaign refuses to admit that it is looking beyond Tuesday’s first-in-the-nation primary, the front-runner is going for the most unattainable of political Triple Crowns. He wants to carry his momentum to South Carolina, the state that bore his competitor North Carolina Sen. John Edwards. One of the axioms of this election is that to beat President Bush, the Democratic nominee must be able to win the South -- or at least some of it."
