Iowa Caucus Live Thread

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?

Hillary 49.9% 19 delegates Bernie 49.4% 20 delegates
What?

Hillary has a .5 higher percentage but gets one less delegate? How does that work?

Dream on because it’s not going to happen. Cruz bet the farm on Iowa and it was well known that he had over 10,000 people on the ground there. Cruz is a career politician and Trump is a newcomer to the political game. The real voting starts next week where real people actually vote instead of the ancient caucus method.

Good point re mailing.

I think Trump skipping that last debate at a critical time cost him a couple points.

But first time out.

Man, over 50% of the vote for the “screw the GOPe” candidates! Sure they are shocked.

Although he’s well back in 3rd, Rubio is doing too strongly for my liking. He’s up to 22% right now. We Freepers need to stop taking potshots at each other and turn our attention to Rubio, who will come out of this night with much momentum and will give the GOPe new hope that they can divide us and steal this nomination after all.”

Absolutely spot on. The lamestream media is going to anoint Rubio the "big winner" even though Cruz won the night. Both Cruz and Trump need to go full bore against this amnesty loving loser and push him to third place in NH.

>>>If you get your understanding of the constitution from Donald Trump (or Lawrence Tribe), you are truly illiterate<<<

Gee, I’m a Cruz guy first and he is completely WRONG about the Anchor Baby issue while Trump is absolutely right about it. I wonder if Tribe agrees with Cruz or Trump on that?

Lawrence Tribe is a Liberal dirt bag, but he is also a Constitutional Scholar. He isn’t the only one that says Cruz has an NBC problem. Heck, I think Rubio has a bigger NBC problem since neither of his Parents were American Citizens when he was born.

Politics is rough, so Trump mentioning Tribe’s Opinion on Ted’s Eligibility is just another Arrow in his Quiver.

If Ted gets the Nomination, the DemoncRats will go after his Eligibility like white on rice. That is why I would expect Cruz to nip it in the bud before he becomes the presumptive Nominee. At least I hope he does.

One other thing about the Cruz victory.

He stood up against the ethanol subsidies and won. That is a victory for all conservatives.

Get over that birther stuff. It's total BS!

The candidate needs two citizen parents, and to be born on US soil. Cruz forgot he was a Canadian, Rubio is an anchor baby.

That "birther stuff" was a requirement by the framers, quoted in a Supreme Court decision, and was taught in schools before the Soviet revisionists took over.

Do you really believe anchor babies and other foreigners are eligible?
