Hillary declared victory way to early. That should set off alarm bells. Bernie should fight this if he’s serious about winning. Sometimes I doubt that.

Check out the coin they used and if the coin flipper was able to pay off all their bills along with the mortgage.

I just don't believe that many "tied" precincts.

And that many people in charge who don't know how to count. The fact that there are so many "tied" precincts make it look like a pre-planned scheme by the campaign.

Just as spreading the Sanders rumor seemed with the 'pubs.

Recount how?

Bernie needs to cool it and play his position if he knows what a healthy lifestyle choice is. Problem is he has lots more natural appeal to typical Democrat voters than youknowwho. In a fair match he could literally almost win just by showing up - but that ain't what he's there for. He's supposed to just be an old, white tackling dummy for the primaries.

I agree with you, and the anger in the PUMA corner over Hussein’s stunts was off the charts. I have no doubt those lessons sunk home, and this time she was determined to be on right side of the ambush.

He has a LOT of traction with young people. Truly surprising. But then, he is their only alternative and they are of the opinion they have already been robbed in perpetuity, and they might as well get some of the division of loot. Rand Paul and Carson are the only Republican candidates who have traction with them, but neither is taken very seriously. They seem to like the crusty Dutch uncle persona.

If there was ever a question that Hillary was a witch the “tied precincts” and the coin tosses proved it.

Then there was the blizzard that sent all the vote counters home.

Bernie—if you don’t know who the sucker is it is you.

I suggest they try a Trial by Combat.

My money would be on the old guy.

There is no crying in baseball, nor recounts of Democrat Iowa caucuses.

I was surprised to learn the DNC controls the Iowa Democrat primary, not an Iowa Democrat organization.

According to what I heard, the Iowa caucuses are run by the respective parties, not the state, so there is no such thing as a mandatory recount in a close vote. Sanders should just move on; the virtual tie was victory enough.
