Does anyone believe he's really pulling more than 20% of the vote?

I think the dems lent the GOP-e their ballot counters.

[Kenny500c]

Humor goes a long way in politics, his joke about Sanders being a good president - of Sweden - was funny.

[dp0622]

realclearpolitics has him at 17 percent in polling, and they’re pretty close with Cruz and Trump tonight, so yeah, a lot of “moderates” out there still.

[Forgotten Amendments]

Everyone knows Ron Paul won Iowa in 2012.

It’s corrupt.

[TexasFreeper2009]

Trump and Cruz made fools of themselves over the last few days, it doesn’t surprise me one bit that the late deciders went heavily for Rubio.

[Vic S]

I seriously hope there are many independent vote counters. And why is microsoft needed? Just publicize each caucus.

We’re smart enough to add (we weren’t all taught through common core.)

[Helicondelta]

Entrance polls say Rubio will get 21%.

He’ll finish third. That’s all that matters.

With Cruz finishing second the field will stay crowded well into March.

[dforest]

Democrats doing operation chaos and voting Rubio.

[The_Victor]

It's just Iowa, and Rubio is in third.

[canuck_conservative]

Close, real close

Now we have to listen to Big Media endlessly talking up Rubio (groan)

[jwalsh07]

He would be at about 40 if McCain and Graham had not got hold of him. People like him.

[Jan_Sobieski]

Surprisingly, there are a lot of Rubio voters in Iowa...to our own detriment...

[babble-on]

If Trump ends up in third place that will end his campaign. If you’re running as “the winner” how do you explain being a “loser”.

Time to just “file Chapter 11” on the whole artful deal?

[Rome2000]

I’ll qualify that, Trump is down by 3500 votes, not ALL Iowans are retarded.

No matter what happens tonight, this will be the LAST time a bunch of 91% WHITE holy roller simpletons get to set the tone for who runs the USA.

IOWA IS FIRED.

I understand this years ROMNEY named MARCO RUBIO has 20% these GOOBERS all discombobulated.

[tinamina]

I hate that little weasel Rubio. So clearly pandering these last days. I hope I don’t have to vote for him, seriously. He does not deserve to be President of the USA

[kik5150]

Never forget: Gang of Eight.

[niteowl77]

I just heard from a relative that their precinct up in NW Iowa had a slick congressman from Indiana speak on behalf of Rubio, while all the other candidates had to make do with the local rubes.

Smells like RNC.

Mr. niteowl77

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

What fix? He came in 3rd as expected. He got a little more than expected. He can’t win with 3rd places. Of course I hear the radio people bragging about Rubio’s big win. That is CRAZY. DO NOT FALL FOR THAT SPIN!

[gunsequalfreedom]

These candidates all need to drop out of the race now...

Bush
2.8%
Kasich
1.8%
Fiorina
1.8%
Huckabee
1.7%
Christie
1.6%
Santorum
1%
Gilmore
0%

[escapefromboston]

According to Microsoft Rubio got 120% of the vote

[cotton1706]

Don’t forget that Iowa falsely gave momentum to Romney four years ago. They do whatever it takes.
