Iowa Caucus Live Thread
2/1/16

Posted on 02/01/2016 3:07:17 PM PST by markomalley

A search shows that nobody's opened up a live thread for tonight's caucuses. So here goes.

Predictions? For both the GOP and Dem nominations?

Eyewitness Accounts? See any funny business going on?

Crossovers doesn’t sound right either when you look at how close the D race is.

Could it just be that Cruz has a ground game that is working well in those areas where he is leading?

No, Trump is the establishment’s sleeper candidate. Trump messed up and revealed his establishment hand too early.

Cruz is the establishment’s worst nightmare.

Rubio is in a respectable 3rd. I wouldn’t exactly call that coming on strong. He is still in there. But he is behind 2 others.

Methinks they’ll call it for Cruz soon?

Remember not long ago when NOBODY thought Cruz would get ANY meaningful level of voter support? Kind of mind-blowing if you think about it.

Instead of first among governors, Christie is next to last among governors.

Trump is losing the some of the low info/late decider vote to Rubio and it’s swinging the race to Saint Rafael. Rubio is the best liar of the bunch and you have to really follow things closely to know his history.

Sure it adds up: Trump and Cruz have been directly tearing each other down for weeks now. Rubio not only is pretty much cornering the Establishment—and pro-illegal labor—vote, but he hasn’t been taking incoming the way the other two have.

Having two insurgent/grassroots/conservative candidates directly battling each other—the way Cruz and Trump have been fighting while they split the conservative vote—couldn’t be better for the GOPe.

Cruz will never be the nominee, you’re electing Rubio.

Trump just made a big jump in Polk county vote. Let’s see if it lasts....

He is pulling away as more votes come in. Up 29-25 with 67% in. Looks like Cruz will take it.

Didn’t Reagan lose Iowa, after skipping a debate...and then go on to a landslide in the General? IIRC.
