I mentioned last week that Iowa was just that, Iowa.

No one wins Iowa and the nomination (As a percentage of winners versus eventual nominees.) is automatic or even a majority guaranteed.

Iowa’s caucus system is so antiquated, easy to manipulate, stonewall opposition and brow beat attendees into submission or agreement. That’s how Obama won in in 2008.

That’s how Clinton won it in 2016, she of the 6 for 6 magical coin flips.

The tsunami for Trump begins tonight. It’s pretty much game over. No other candidate has the ground game and resources to make a race of it in enough states through the SEC primary to matter.

No home grown candidate in any state on the primary schedule is ahead of Trump.

I support Trump but he needs to put more emphasis on person to person and less on rallies. Family in SC tell me Cruz has a strong, trained group on the ground there. I hope Trump moves on this.

So Republican voters will elect a liberal Democrat just like that and conservcatism and moderates die just like that, and the U.S. becomes a center-left country?

Me-gyn Kelly almost can’t contain herself as you can see she is burning that Trump won by SUCH a yuge margin.

Why couldn't HRC engineer a majority, John Ellis Bush employ his Establishment connections, or Donald Trump engineer a deal to make that happen, then?

Someone called the Iowa caucuses Byzantine.
