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?

As I said at the start of this thread, and as I've been saying for days:

The Big Three--Cruz, Rubio, and Trump--all will likely be in the 15%-35% range, perhaps all in the 20s.

And that is exactly what happened--they all finished in the 20s: Cruz 28%, Trump 24%, Rubio 23%.

Thank you, thank you very much. :-)

Beck may overstep and hurt Cruz in NH.

Trump has a YUGE lead...but then SC.

We live in interesting times for sure.

Just looking at the screen and seeing our top 4 candidates, only one is “white.” And the Dems, all three are lily white.

There’s no way Trump voters are switching to Rubio. I could see them going to Paul maybe, but not Rubio.

The only “switching” going on is at MS HQ.

Oh man, Rubio agains starting into his religious mode again, thanking “almighty God”. Does he believe God favors him over Cruz or the others? I Can’t stand it when pro athletes similarly thank God, as if He reached down and held back their opponents.

>>Any chance that the Trumpies and Cruzies can ever join forces to wipe out Rubio before we turn on each other again?

From what I’m reading in this thread, the Cruzies just want the Trumpies to go away forever. Seahawksfan is saying that “Payback’s a bitch” (Payback for what?? Disagreeing? Is that a bad thing in the Cruzy mind?). Theo is telling us to go away from FR and he’d ban us if he could.

I think it’s like the GOPe put in all the schlubs, 14-15 of them, and they’re all like talking robots with the same operating system. That way they can pick and choose as the game goes on. Tonight it’s RUBIO! - You’re IN. HUCK! - You’re OUT!

The sweetest part. Principle won, pander lost.

The worst part: the entire DC establishment is breathing a huge sigh of relief, right now.

Thankfully they split the delegates at five delegates each. Not to worry. 5 each to Cruz, TRUMP and Rubio.

When we get to the South the AMNESTY thing will keep TRUMP a shoe-in. The other two are on the record for the cheap labor express.

1)He has no such willingness. You believe lies.

2)If his mailer to non-voters is a serious issue to you, I don’t even know what to say.

My mom tends to like Rubs more as well, cause he’s Catholic.

“When the race gets down to 3-4, Trump’s liberalism, lies, and arrogance will assure the nation we won’t have to put up with ass-hole personality for 4-8 years. The supporters of those who drop out will not be going to Trump. Trump is the second choice of almost no one in this race. With a Cruz win tonight, if he wins, Trump’s future in this race will be certain. He will have no chance.”

Certainly a possibility.

A lot of conservatives on talk radio went on a Trump bashing mission today to ensure Cruz won. Now Rubio has a great chance to be in the game and win against Trump.

That’s my fear. But I will vote for Trump or Cruz. I’ll have to think itb over if anyone else wins.
