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?

Don’t kid yourself. Jim Bob supports Trump and barely tolerates Cruz.

He's previewing his message for SC and the SEC states.

Rubio’s embrace of illegal immigrants will kill him down here.

Trump's NY values will kill him down here -now that he's not an inevitable winner.

Next debate in 5 days in NH on ABC. Trump now can’t afford to duck that. Fox won’t be there to hit him on issues. ABC may or may not. But I bet Ted will hit him on issues. Religious issues may not sell in NH, but Ted can hit him there on Tea Party issues, on TrumpCare, etc.

True. But whomever the nominee is has a long way to go.

Yes they do. They have to beat Hillary or Bernie.

The Dem stats are for delegates, not votes. They do it differently in Iowa.

How many went to the Trump rallies just to be part of the scene?

Hillary is shouting on CNN. Hard bobbing her head too.

You’re getting very carried away. The man can speak for himself, and as I said, last I checked, “Go Cruz, Go Trump” was more like it. And no, I don’t despise Cruz or Trump.

Apparently this morning before the caucus there was a Microsoft/Rubio theory that claimed they would vote-switch enough to put Trump in second, not first, and Rubio a close third.

hmmmmm...

Trump’s got a lot of support in the south.

Wow. The ‘racist’ Republican party just had 51 percent of voters in an overwhelmingly white state vote for two Hispanics.

Cruz has a far better chance of winning the general than Hillary.

Trump has so much baggage and so many people can’t stand him.

Plus he will implode if he loses any more primaries.

I think his religious acey-deceyism is genuine, not any political calculation, there are many more Catholics in Florida than Baptists.

Most tellingly, he went Mormon as a KID and somehow got his mom to go along, that’s really weird.
