I was here at the beginning of the thread. Now I'm watching these people cheering the guy that was reading the phone numbers and pin numbers on TV. LOL!

I know... can you believe that?! These are definitely 'RAT voters! LOL

Watching the Iowa Caucuses is a lot more fun than I expected... ;-D

[William McKinley]

I don't see many doing that either.

I didn't believe any real Republicans were actually going to vote for Dean either. But boy have I seen a lot of them lately around these parts. I suspected the Deanie weenies were making their internet presence known by pretending to be Republicans. Just like C-Span callers on the "Republican" line.

I'm not so sure that Kerry would lick Clinton's boots. If he's in the cat bird seat he'll be his own man. Teresa will demand it. This could be a matchup of the Beast vs. Lovey.

What do you want to bet this will be a skit on an upcoming SNL? You couldn't write better comedy.

[Pappy Smear]

Just heard on the local DSM station that the union dominated precincts have already reported. If Gep is this low with them, he is toast.

Lady wants to make sure all the genders are represented..How many genders are there?

Dubuque used to have only two genders, but when the housing market in Galena got too high, we picked up a couple more.

[Hand em their arse]

My God, could you imagine??

[bife]

Dean has really been showing his true colors here these past few weeks.

[Lurking in Kansas]

Tomorrow Chris Lehane will go to work on smearing Kerry and Edwards....watch for some negative reporting to start. The only one that hasn't been attacked yet .. is Edwards

Then there is no doubt that Clinton has something up his sleeve

Right. The fun is just starting. The clinton’s will go after the front runner one by one. Dean down, Kerry and Edwards next.

[Central Scrutiniser]

Damn, I was looking so forward to seeing Dean get his ass whupped by Bush. Now all the paranoics are gonna crow about the Skull and Bones candidates.

BTW, wonder how Palo Verde is feeling about her candidate Dennis Kucininch?

I love you

Was it wise of Clark to skip Iowa? He could've benefitted from the Dean freefall.

[Indy Pendance]

I know lots here want dean to win the nomination, but I don't. He's much to unstable to be in charge. The thought of him beating Bush is just too dangerous. I'd rather have a dem candadate that wasn't mental.

[Mo1]

Dole beat the snot out of GHWB in 1988; Bush knocked the crap out of him in NH and went on to get the nod.

The only one to win Iowa and the nomination was Carter

[cajungirl]

Iowans are sort of plain,,no offense intended. But they sure are, well, plain

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

when is the next caucas...or however its spelled

[BigSkyFreeper]

These televised results are statewide numbers, if a candidate fails to get more than 15% in a single caucus, they're not "viable".

[JosephW]

Kerry 37.7
Edwards 32.5
Dean 17.9
Gephardt 10.5

precints 1333 of 1993
