The law of unintended consequences. Ugh. There may be advancements of some kind that will mitigate the negative effect of ethanol on car engines, but the change definitely brought about some bad news. There ought to at least be some alternatives available to those who own vintage vehicles requiring vintage fuels. And yes, the crony capitalism is bad news, too. I’m just trying to figure out whether ethanol might be a viable way of supplementing what bubbles up from the ground.

I consider the lot to be little more than our-way-or-the highway fundamentalists waging spiritual battle with an ossified tea and cucumber sandwich set, with both subject to the Polk County shiny-pants combine. All three legs of that stool have an uncanny ability to promote candidates that you wouldn't feel comfortable with in your living room.

I saw my first local Carson '16 sticker on a vehicle with a War is Not the Answer sticker on the other side. "Strange days, indeed…"

Does anyone believe Carson has ever done anything but highly specialized medicine? I am amazed — this reminds me of a high school popularity contest. For Gosh sakes— We need someone who can MANAGE THE GOVERNMENT!! What are the people of IOWA thinking ( or is it they aren't thinking)
Actually the poll may be a total fraud if it was sponsored by the Des Moines Register. That whole paper is a liberal socialist RAG.

Thanks.

This is where he is wrong.

There are plenty of energy alternatives (they’re just more expensive) if we run out of oil, so we should use up the relatively cheap oil as fast as we can.

This all started with the Arab oil embargoes of the ‘70s along with the popularity of the wrong peak oil theory. If the US government hadn’t explored alternatives and disaster had struck, politicians would have been hanged.

If the three are working together that would make you happy? Trump has always used a team. Great interview with Ivanka and Eric explains how the Trump board room works

The link below shows the difference in mileage in an interesting story.

http://www.edmunds.com/fuel-economy/e85-vs-gasoline-comparison-test.html

The charts at the end tell the reality.

Of course the best test would have been pure gasoline not the %’s of gas0h0l used.

Carson actually believes these polls. Most evangelicals I know despise 7th Day Adventists. And in all the polls I’ve seen where Trump is leading he is also leading in the evangelical vote. I think the MSM is rigging these polls. Anyone with a brain knows Carson or the others stand no change against the Clinton machine. Trump is the only one that can stop it.

Poll Shows Trump Beating Clinton in Head-to-Head Contest taking 70% of Electoral Votes

Powdered Wig Society ^ | Thomas Madison
Posted on 10/22/2015, 4:20:45 PM by LS

image: http://i1.wp.com/powderedwigsociety.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/us1.png?resize=696%2C506 us1 The latest 2016 presidential poll has Donald Trump destroying Hitlery Clinton in a head-to-head matchup, 375 electoral votes to Hitlery’s 163. That is an astonishing 70% to 30%, and is very good news if you are a Donald Trump supporter…. and I am!

Based on an average of the RCP (Real Clear Politics) polling data from all the states and all the “head to head” matchups between Donald Trump (by far the winner of the GOP) and Hillary Clinton (The winner of the Democratic Party) shows bad news for the Democrats.

Clinton is losing handily in all the swing states, and is even losing Democrat strongholds of Maryland, Connecticut, and Oregon.

Which ones got elected president is irrelevant, the primary winner is what matters now.

3 of 7 Republican Iowa caucus winners in a contested primary since 1976 went on to win the nomination.

Democrats do better, 6 out of 9 who won Iowa went on to win the nomination.

The Des Moines Register which TRump won’t let into his rallies. I guess they are looking for a little payback. LOL!

I find this odd. I don’t recall Carson drawing big crowds in Iowa while Trump attracted huge ones. While Carson scores high on likeability, I fail to see him as possessing traits to make people want him for president except that he is better than Rubio and several others.

Cruz is not even a player in IOWA based on the evangelical vote.

this is all push polling and super pac manipulation. (with help from the media)

Iowans have tender sensitivities and they like ‘nice’ evangelical/religious types like Santorum.

The battle hardened — like we desperately need right now — like Ted Cruz, they turn away from because the media has told them that Cruz is direct, stubborn, confrontational.

Well, if Carson were also in office and weren’t ‘direct, stubborn, confrontational’, then they’d be complaining about him.

Pick Cruz over Carson.

Trump/Cruz 2016!

Sure! Just so long as it isn’t “but he’s a good man” running the country.

I lived in Des Moines Iowa for 15 years. I wouldn’t wipe myself with the Des Moines Register. You won’t find a more lefty paper in the midwest.

Has anyone told them that Carson is Seventh Day Adventist?

I just found out.

They dont like Trump?

he better figure out a way to get their votes.

I saw that it’s evengelicals and women giving him the bump.

based on what i dont know.

he said he and sharpton have the same goals!!!!

He will CHARGE left at light speed once elected.

soft on immigration, soft on 2nd amendment, but if we even need a president to separate twins, we’ll be set.

pulling the lever for him in the general, i guess, but he’ll turn hard left, i guarantee it.

SDA’s have changed. A decade or so ago, Christianity Today, accepted their change and said they were now close to a protestant denomination.

Their major problems in my opinion are: soul sleep, annihilation, Levitical food laws, and a subsequent low view of grace.

Iowa evangelicals and women support him for the same reasons: he’s gentle and nice. He is. That seems to be who he really is.

But King David was NOT gentle and nice. He Slew both giants and opponents.
