Hi!
Just got back from the meeting.
Our precinct was done all together with 2 other ones but the votes were separated.
The three were Cedar Rapids 27, 29 and 31
Here are the totals
For precinct 27
Guiliani 9
Huckabee 21
Macain 19
Ron Paul 11
Hunter 0 (no one was even there to speak for him)
Romney 49
Fred Thompson 22
Keys 0

For precinct 29:
Guiliani 8
Huckabee 23
Macain 6
Ron Paul 4
Hunter 0
Romney 12
Fred Thompson 16
Keys 3

For precinct 31:
Guiliani 7
Huckabee 54
Macain 15
Ron Paul 18
Hunter 0
Romney 73
Fred Thompson 18
Keys 0

AS you can see 31 had more turnout than the others.
The funny bit of trivia most people don’t know is that this vote, in Iowa, does not bind the convention delegates to a candidate. Hence it really means nothing except as perception. Of course the Iowa Caucus is all about national perception. Me and JenB signed up to be delegates to the county convention.

Martha McCollum is drop dead gorgeous but dim as a 5 watt bulb in a 100 watt socket.

Mike Allen is on drugs.

You said — “I am an evangelical, and I know a lot evangelicals - and almost none of them want Huckabee.”

You’re a “laugh a minute”.... Who have they been organizing then (to get Huckabee that vote) the devil-worshipers and the cultists? LOL!

Why isn’t Thompson getting more news coverage?

He was on Foxnews several times today, but hardly any word about him tonight other than the "rumor" thing. I'm very disappointed with the lack of coverage of Fred.

FNC does not love FR any more.

they have now adopted liberal politico.com.

Somebody check the water at the FNC. Somebody is putting ritalin in the water because they have a serious case of the stupids.

In reality there is not much difference between Huckabee and McCain,

It's hard to tell which one loves amnesty for illegals more.

Well, Fred did well and will continue to do well with some money.

I will give him another $25.00.

He got no shot and if it weren't for his over inflated ego, he would of never hung in as long as he has.

I agree. It will be at least February before McCain drops out. His ego won't allow him to quit before then.

That’s the same lying creep from the Politico who first published the whole thing.

I’m glad you are a female!

It’s great to meet someone that thinks like me in so many areas.

You aren’t too macho, not at all. You seem like you are very nice.

66% in

Thanks. That is good news for Fred's campaign.

Please forgive me if I post this equation again (says it all):

Thompson IS getting coverage on foxnews but it’s not what he’d like to hear. Even coming in third isn’t good enough as they’re saying Fred needed to come in a strong third to be viable and they’re high fiving McCain’s finish saying it’s a great night for him. GRRR
