"Well, the BIG NEWS is that Marco Rubio, who was predicted to come in 3rd, and who was 3rd in the polls, scored a stunning victory by coming in 3rd.

In a related story, another candidate came in 1st by landing more votes than any Republican ever has before.

But, back to the main story, Rubio stunned the world by coming in 3rd even while a Cruz staffer shocked all of Iowa by tweeting what CNN had reported about Carson.

Also, a record 170,000 Republicans turned out to vote as a result of the excitement that Trump, whom they apparently did not vote for, brought to the race.

Meanwhile the unnamed candidate who did win somehow did it by promising to end ethanol corn subsidies in a corn-dependent state, which is unprecedented... but did you hear about Rubio's stunning breakout performance??"
