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?

I understand the Demorats don’t cast votes....rather it’s a verbal vote and no wonder then they bring in people.

What bothers me about Rubio is his amnesty/wide open border position and bringing in foreign workers to take American jobs with the H1B and H1B visa program. Rubio is at best Obama light.

Yes, I am sick of hearing how great he thinks he is. Lots of Rubio commercials here, too and I don’t like him - I liken him to a swarmy used car salesman (at least he’s not a motor mouth in his commercials as when he normally speaks).

I was actually happy when Rubio won the Senate - thought he would be a TEA party guy (had a huge support from them and I think Palin). The Gang of 8 and other things made him lose any support I had for him.

I can’t believe that 16 pct (1 of every 6 GOP voters) are still voting for one of the Kids Table candidates. Cruz, Trump, Marco, and Carson have been the top for months now.

I don’t know where the Rubites came from, but the way the numbers are shifting, he could end up in second. That’s a scary thought.

It's just what I think when I hear "I'll never watch Fox news", "I'll never listen to Levin again", "I'll never listen to Rush again"

Listened to Levin maybe five times in my life, Rush maybe ten times, and I have not turned on Fox News Channel for one second since all the candidates were still on the stage at the first FNC "ambush" Debate.

I always heard the most conservative trait of a conservative is that they mean what they say. I have not walked into a Kroger store in nine years because they refused to accept my Coca-Cola coupons. I have not eaten at Taco Bell in thirty nine years because I bit into a lettuce bug there.

In the interest of full disclosure I will say I was always a Neal Bootrz / Herman Cain listener until I had to turn them off too, because Erick Erickson is on the same station, WSB AM750.

Not good if Rubio comes in second. Then the GOPe will put its full weight against Cruz. Rubio is the GOPe candidate. Tim Scott will supposedly endorse Rubio.

Iowa provides one (1) per cent of the delegates too, so it’s a little like the first dwarf tossing contest of the evening in the bar—you want to look away, but you just can’t ...
It beats Cutthroat Kitchen on Netflix though.

“I’m not a drinker, but when I first saw what you wrote I thought about the Confederates vice president Breckenridge who was a big drinker. Not sure if spelling is the same and whether the bourbon or whiskey was named after him.”

I don’t think so. It’s made in Breckenridge, Colorado.

We just moved to CO from Texas and it was recommended. It’s pretty good!

John King of CNN is actually pretty good with that interactive map he has.

I think the cabal saw to it that ‘racist’ Trump would not win under any circumstances. Trump should demand a recount.
