FYI it's being carried live on Cspan. They said coverage starts at 7 pm ET, with the actual caucus at 7:30 pm ET.

But he was sure emotional, wasn't he? Wonder what took him so long to do this?

I missed it .. what's this about?

[ConservativeMan55]

Gephardt Folds! Bwahahaha! Head back to Missouri you loser!!!

[Dog]

Gepharst will drop out tomorrow.....PER NBC.

[Salvation]

Gephardt going back to St. Louis tonight instead of going to New Hamshire or South Carolina>

[Keith in Iowa]

>>Brit just mentioned that Dicky is going to St. Louie instead of NH tmrw! Is he leaving politics for good?

Sounds like it. Looks like Howdy-Dickie is toast. Turn out the lights, his party is OVER!

[Robert A Cook PE]

Lehane.... Now with Hillary's campaign.

Wasn't he the one peddling that old story of Bush getting a DWI for weeks before the 2000 election, only to have it finally run on Friday before the vote?

[George W. Bush]

Didn't President Hart win Iowa? heh heh :) As did President Gephardt ('88) and President Dole ('88).

And Bush beat Reagan in '80. Clinton got 4% in Iowa in '92 and only took a second in New Hampshire.

Dean's far from dead. But I am very surprised that Dean didn't break 25%. And Gephart isn't going to hit 15%. A real shock for people like me who count organization as everything.

I think Iowa is a fluke. Dean is still the frontrunner but he's vulnerable now.

Howie just claimed that Carter endorsed him.

He is such a natural liar, I can't see how he lost a Democrat primary.

Fox says Gep Dickheart is on the cusp of ending his political career.

[festus]

Baaa Baaa Baaa ;-)

[cynwoody]

HA! .. I can top your picture

Let's see ... Left to right, John F-up Kerry, Tom Harkin, Mrs. Harkin, Comrade Danny Ortega? Do you have the date?

[clintonh8r]

Note to DUmbass lurkers: Your big union power base has been shown to be impotent. They backed both of tonight's big losers. Sorry! not

[Kevin Curry]

Gephardt is finished. Not even 'fufkin would vote for him now.

Stick the proverbial fork in him.

Now, who will he endorse?

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

I'd bet money about who instigated this. But I doubt the war story is even 100% true, if at all.

[GOPyouth]

Aight folks, it's happy hour at Fridays. Everybody have a good one!

[Dog Gone]

Sounds like a withdrawal from the race announcement tomorrow.

[Ciexyz]

When I look at Kerry, I think of John Heinz' money.

[nwrep]

Gephardt to drop out of Prez. race tomorrow

[tapatio]

Hello DUmmies

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

That's not Carlos Santana? ; )

[The Shrew]

This is too convenient IMHO. It could well be heart felt and be totally cool, but I sure wish Carl Cameron would have asked the question, "Did you call the Kerry Campaign, or did the Kerry Campaign call you?"
