Over in The Corner, Kathryn notes Zogby’s final numbers:

Obama 31 percent, Edwards 27 percent, Clinton 24 percent, Richardson 7 percent. Huckabee 31 percent, Romney 25 percent, Thompson 11 percent, McCain 10 percent, Paul 10 percent.

From the Zogby release: “Edwards finished this Zogby daily tracking in Iowa in the same place as four years ago, when Zogby correctly identified the finishing order of the candidates in that caucus.”

Yes, but Zogby’s final numbers in 2004 were Kerry 25 percent, Edwards 22 percent, Dean 21 percent, Gephardt 18 percent.

The final results were Kerry 37.6 percent, Edwards 31.8 percent, Dean 18.0 percent, Gephardt 10.6 percent.

There’s a big difference between Dean finishing third with 21 percent, four percentage points off the leader, and finishing third with 18 percent and nearly 20 points off the leader.
