Des Moines, Iowa - The Iowa caucus this year continued its trend of turning out surprising winners by nominating Sarah Palin as its Republican presidential candidate of choice.
The Iowa caucus is traditionally the first caucus held and often gives black horse candidates a needed boost of momentum and fundraising.
Palin, who never announced a bid for the presidency, says the win is "surprising, considering that I wasn't exactly running, but nice. I guess America has spoken." She plans to begin thinking about considering a presidential run in the near future.
Iowan Paul Ruthers cites Palin's record as a defender of the people as the reason behind his choice. "I just thought, you know, Palin really gets us. She knows what we want, and she can give it to us. Palin 2012!"
"Besides," he adds, "who else was I supposed to vote for? Romney? Hah. Not likely."
