It is Iowa people - Not sure beating Trump by 4% is some huge victory. Basically his piece of the pie came out and voted.

Let me say it again - it is Iowa and most people except for the die hards out there do not even care. Santorm, Huckabee won too and where did it get them? Just saying....Much ado about nothing.

I've read that even though Santorum won and Romney was a close second, Ron Paul walked away with 21 of the 30 delegates because the Iowa caucus doesn't have squat to do with how the delegates are selected in Iowa.

I kept seeing interviews all weekend with Iowa voters who HAD NOT YET MADE UP THEIR MINDS.

Honestly, we should just hand this place over to Canada.

Didn't bother reading the article, eh?

Someone ran on ENDING SUBSIDIES, and did so in the state that would be directly affected, AND WON.

This is YUGE news for those who care about limited government, no matter ho your candidate is. America may actually be ready to vote against Santa. That is worth noting.

that may be, but there was record turnout on the republican side for these caucus, statewide.

180,000 cast votes for repub candidates.

140,000 for the communists.

historically, the communists always turn out higher in caucus than GOP

not this time

so, less people dont care, this time around.
