It will probably be a waste of time to even attempt to reason with you but here goes. First, provide one piece of evidence the caucus vote was in any way corrupted. It wasn't and as a matter of fact RPI was able to certify the largest percentage vote ever.
There are NO allegations of chicanery because there was none.
Also where did you come up with the idea that RPI was trying to help Santorum. This is crazy as we have people accusing RPI of trying to help Santorum (because they hate Mormons), we have people accusing RPI of favoring Romney because he spent money there and we probably have others who can theorize they're trying to help Gingrich.
Again, there is no evidence to support any of this.
If RPI had wanted to control the outcome of this vote, they would not have been honest about the final tally--they could have manipulated this vote to provide the outcome they wanted. They didn't. The vote is what it is and you can look at the final numbers but no way can you come up with the conclusion that RPI was trying to create more enthusiasm for Santorum so Gingrich would lose.
I am willing to accept that the Iowa vote was legitimate this time but you will have to admit that with all the election hanky-panky we’ve witnessed in the last half century or so, all over the country, it is no wonder that some FReepers are extremely suspicious. Not because they have any evidence of fraud necessarily but because they have experienced election fraud either in their locality or in other areas of the country through media reports.
Since the fraudsters are almost always Democrats, a conservative could become justifiably paranoid just thinking about it.
