Oprah created her wealth from nothing but her own efforts, much like Rush Limbaugh did.

That IS an accomplishment.

She's done NOTHING different than other talk show hosts have done... she brings no special talent. Her success has been manufactured by the press, and the reason for her support of Obama is thinly veiled.

Apparently. If there was any doubt about the Reagan revolution being dead, this should confirm it.

OK, Huck got a field goal on the opening drive.

So did the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XX against the ‘85 Bears. How did that turn out?

Fred only has 180 more votes than McCain and McCain hasn’t campaigned in Iowa like Thompson.

JMO but what can you say? We did not want Rudy but were basically told, “If you don’t like it Bible Thumpers, tough. Your job is to vote for who we tell you to.”, so we decided to find our own candidate. Some chose Huck. Some chose Fred and some, Duncan Hunter. Now we have another problem. We are divided among ourselves, and each candidate deserves to be supported. We will work it out though, don’t you think?

Why don’t you just say it? You believe Fred is a cultist because he is a member of the Church of Christ.

Ron Paul is a sissy. He’d rather hike up his skirt and take it in the keister from Al Qaeda than protect our country.

They have been skipping right over Fred to cover McRino. Really gets under my skin. I turned Fox when Hannity came on he has been a Rudy mouthpiece since the beginning.

YOu make a good point — there are more people at the ORANGE BOWL GAME tonight than voted in the Iowa Caucus.

I’ve tried 3 times tonight to donate.....Fred’s site has been too busy. A good sign!

Ah, no.

Fred's web site doesn't have it together enough by now to accept a surge of donations? Whether or not that's the actual problem, it's not a good thing.

To bad about RG, MR, and FT, but accomplishments and results no longer matter. Even conservative policy results, and voting records, do not compute if one is a “sinner”, lol.

And too bad for our troops, I hope the President is watching closely, he will certainly have to pull out troops ASAP, since we will not have a wartime President to take over the WOT, and without GITMO to be closed with Huck/Obama, and tough interrogations to end, our troops will not be safe.

Maybe something good will shake out for FT, or RG in other primaries.

But the economic liberal populists are ascending, and they want government nannies.

Yep, dollar per vote Romney turned out a big loser tonight, IMHO. Spending that much money and you can’t carry a solid lead... Doesn’t look good for the long haul.>

Yes. Also, this shows that the old political-management solution -- "throw more money at he problem" -- often doesn't work. Ideas and passion carry more weight.

McCain does not need much campaign cash. His cash is MSM.

Needed to be said again!!!

I feel horrible for Duncan Hunter. Fred is looking like a fourth place finish as McCain keeps creeping closer. Not a good day of Iowans showing themselves as Conservatives.
