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?

I’m on board with a Microsoft conspiracy for four reasons.

1. it’s Microsoft

2. Cruz managed to maintain a 3% lead all night right up to the end. Then boards like these started posting it was essentially a tie with delegates and he magically, in the 99% counted frame, went to 6 delegates.

3. Rubio was a nobody with the press pumping him up for days. Even with that his poll numbers never went up then Wham!

4. I don’t put stock in entrance/exit polls but that was a big difference, 8 to 10%

A courageous win with no pandering to local subsidies, no cow-towing to the GOPe overlords, and while weathering slanderous lies and obfuscation from his bandwagon opponent or the media hitmen. This first victory is awesome!

Kinda makes you wonder about those so-called “pollsters”.

Not a very good speech by Cruz. Reading his speech and adding in the emotion.

Those aren't votes, but local delegates. The dems don't show the actual vote.

Someone said Cruz is like the guy in class that reminds the teacher she forgot to turn in her homework.

Cruz scored about 10 points less than he would have had Carson, Huckabee, and Santorum not been in the race.

I’ve noticed that, too.

A conservative can’t win so we need a New York liberal.

I'm old enough the remember the '76 and '80 elections. They said the same thing about Reagan. How people forget something that was so obvious back then is mind-boggling.

Great...

Marco Rubio, queer?

“The post, by columnist Wayne Madsen published at Public Intelligence Blog, claims that ‘Marco Rubio was, as a high school and college student, known to be a very extroverted homosexual in both South Beach in Miami, a popular gay area, and at college in Gainesville, Florida.’”

http://www.towleroad.com/2016/02/marco-rubio-gay/

Rubio IS a fag, got caught in a park for male prostitution back in the 90s with a ‘friend’ - Angel Barrios - who later went on to shoot gay porn in his apartment. And the two shared living space.

Trump wins New Hampshire in a walk.

Trump may very well win New Hampshire, but I don't think it will be a "cake walk".
