Iowa Caucus Live Thread
2/1/16

Posted on 02/01/2016 3:07:17 PM PST by markomalley

A search shows that nobody's opened up a live thread for tonight's caucuses. So here goes.

Predictions? For both the GOP and Dem nominations?

Eyewitness Accounts? See any funny business going on?

The debate was really a no-win scenario for Trump. Having said that, no-showing was still probably making the best of a bad situation.

Worst news of the evening has nothing to do with Cruz or Trump: it’s the rise of Rubio.

I might have missed something but go read last week’s post interview debate between Megyan Kelly and Cruz at Fox. Even she agreed what he was doing was a poison pill. Just trying to help you.

Better yet, we should hope that the Trumpies and Cruzies and Rubites join forces to wipe out the Dem Socialists who will win if we don’t unite.

How long until Trump says “Ethanol sucks. It’s a terrible idea, and only losers support it. Oh, wait.......”

Agree with one thing Rubio just said. Hillary Clinton lied to the families of fallen Americans so she can’t be C in C. Love that.

.
How many people in NH are going to vote for a guy that came in second?

They have an image to uphold of “predicting” the winner.

Silly, but that is how it works.

Never been and have no intention to ever do so. Why so much attention to that state when they always pick the losers and now we see Rubio up there. What are they drinking?

When Rubio started his speech it sounded like a re-run of Santorum.....the “They say it couldn’t be done” speech etc. etc.

” if Cruz wins let’s back him 100% to beat the Democratic Communist Party candidate.”

I was hoping Rubio would be gone after tonight, but they each take a third of Iowa’s 30 delegates, 1% of the total delegates in all the 57 states...
If the Democrats make their play, say in October, to have non-NBC Cruze disqualified, Rubio and Trump divide up his delegates, with the GOP of course trying to throw it Rubio’s way at a contested convention.

Gee Jim. I always planned on voting for Cruz or Trump,
but this was before I found out he was born in Canada. He even waited to renounce his citizenship until after he filed his candidacy papers?

We’ve had a lot of ineligible men run for the office, but we’ve never had a foreign-born president elected to the White House, until Barry Obozo, and we all know how that worked out.

Trump will make the matter moot, but Cruz, a constitutional law expert like Barry, should not have put us in this position. So, no.
Go Trump!
