Sam Smith - Although the full count isn't in, at present 73% of Iowa Democrats wanted someone other than Buttigieg, the lead candidate. In other words, no one on the ballot attracted much enthusiasm - something that should concern the Dems.
Further, liberal Democrats fail to recognize a huge problem: they represent only about 25% of the voting population and, as has been pointed out here, they have increasingly become a wealthier and better educated constituency with less interest in their former core group, the working class. 41% of those earning $75 grand or more are liberals and 49% of those with a college degree. Liberals need to pay far more attention to working class issues.

The Iowa caucus is such a DNC engineered disaster, that taking anything more than Biden isn't that popular from it, is likely to be off until a recount is completed.
