Sweeping the nation would imply that Obama wins every single state in the primary.
I Think Barack Will win Iowa but I do not believe his support is strong enough across the rest of the nation for him to win, much less sweep the entire nomination.
I think there's a small possibility that if he were to win New Hampshire and South Carolina in addition to Iowa that he could win the nomination, but I do not think he has much of a chance in winning those states and I do not think there is any way he is going to win every single state in the union.

It depends how you define win and how you define sweep.
For example, the following could be defined as a "win" -- Obama 27.4%, Clinton 27.3%, Edwards 27.2%, Richardson 10.1%. The impact of that win would be non-existestent and it would more properly be called a three-way tie. On the other hand, the following would be a win and might have some impact -- Obama 35.2%, Edwards 28.1%, Clinton 19.7%, Richardson 13.3%.
If by sweep you mean winning all of the primaries, then probably not. However, that "real" win would give Obama a chance in New Hampshire and South Carolina -- to offset probable losses in the unauthorized primaries in Michigan and Florida. Of course, its even harder to define wins and losses in Michigan. With most of the candidates not on the ballot, anything less than a clear majority is a loss for Senator Clinton. Depending on the results in New Hampshire and South Carolina, Senator Obama might be in a position to make it head-to-head with Senator Clinton on February 5th and pull off the win. If Senator Clinton takes New Hampshire and South Carolina, Iowa will not matter and the race will be over on February 6th.

Iowa is only one state. Any candidate still has a chance to win the nomination no matter how Iowa goes.

because Federer isn't enjoying any tournaments for education, we don't understand his modern-day style. He could desire to be nicely rested nevertheless and that i'm particular he could make the semis a minimum of. Djokovic is calling in super style and the Australian Open plexicushion floor suits him the main. The courts are slowing down each and each 12 months, which does no longer help the slightest. I anticipate a Federer-Djokovic assembly in the excellent and optimistically Roger can win his 18th Slam. Roger's opportunities boil right down to 3 issues - -the cost of the courts -in spite of if he's refreshed after looking burnt out on the tip of the season -How short he can shop the factors

Obama has as good of a chance of taking the dem nomination as Huckabee does with the republicans.

NOPE! I still think it will be the Hildabeast in November.
Of course, Obama isn't much better since they are BOTH inexperienced, pro-amnesty and socialists. All three are things this country doesn't need!

Obama is a joke when r u fools gonna realize that no black man will ever be president of the US. The only reason we had Colin Powell and Condi is because they were appointed.

No. His inexperience on important issues is a relevant point. In my opinion, he should have waited until 2012.
