Paul,Mitt and Santorum all tied at 23% for 1st.
One thing is for sure.
So far about 50% of Iowa is nuts

Finally, we have no idea how the Paul people will show up and many of those are actually Democrats.

This is something you don't hear ANYONE comment on - the fact that democrats can vote in the republican caucuses in Iowa.

Is this the reason the Iowa winner RARELY goes on to win the primaries?

Who are the demRats going to vote for? The best candidate or the one they figure their candidate - in this case, obummer, can easier beat...

DUH!

Which is why Iowa is such a joke.

As another good poster educated me, Reagan came in 2nd, not 4th. Only a point or two seperated them.

Surprised Newt is not doing better but the guy has little infrastructure... Paul has it, Romney has it and santorum seems to be the new guy on top..... we all know where that ends up! Bachmann is done if she can only muster single digits in this state.....

“Who did Kristin Powers have to strap to get the job? My 90 year old grandma can give better opinion....”

She met Roger Ailes in a bar in DC and the rest is history.
Kristen was just a dumb as a box o’rocks wanna be commentator/journalist before Ailes got drunk with her and hired her on the spot.
True story.

They’re reporting on the breakdown percentages of votes from Independents, conservatives, etc - but no one mentions that democrats can vote it our Iowa caucuses to - which is probably why the winner there is rarely the one who goes on to win in the end. -

48% of the Independents are going for PAUL - how many of those do you think just might be demRats?

Ya think maybe because the demRats are voting for the one they think obama can more easily beat - duh.

Reagan came in 4th in Iowa -

I fully expect that Santorums flash could be over just as quickly as it occurred.
Ron Paul wont do well in SC.

Fortunes could change a lot in the next month.
They certainly have in the past!

I wonder if the people caucusing in Iowa realize that the rest of the country is watching them on TV.

Yup, we sure do...thank God all the phone calls will stop tonight...our caucus had 40 people, double what it was in 2008...12 votes Newt, 8 votes Santorum, 6 votes Paul, 1 vote Romney and I don't remember who the the others were...

Although they have not rolled the percentages yet, it appears that Perry is narrowing the gap with Newt, and widening the gap with Bachmann.

You must mean Reagan can in 4th in 1976 against Ford?
If so, where did Reagan end up that year after coming in 4th?
NOT PRESIDENT.

Palin basically says Bachmann should drop out, and then spins it.

Looks like Freddie Newt is getting sliced and diced in Iowa.
