Ron Paul's winning Iowa wouldn't guarantee anything, but it would at least get his name out there as a serious contender. It would be harder for the media to continue to ignore him.

The media doesn't ignore the other candidates, so their winning Iowa would probably be less beneficial than it would be for RP.
