Ball: Winners and losers in Iowa

Krystal thinks Bernie and Butt are the big winners given preliminary indications. This is good for Bernie because Butt will not do so well in the other States with a more diverse voting base, and therefore is not a legitimate contender overall. It also keeps Butt in the race to water down support for the other establishment anti-Bernie candidates.

But Biden is the big loser if it holds up that he'll come in a distant 4th. She also notes that Biden's polling numbers have always been inflated given his lackluster campaign that just doesn't draw people to come out. His big money donors are likely to also start backing out, especially after a poor showing in New Hampshire.
