Ben Carson? I think he is playing it safe after that comment of his on homosexuality.
Not just in Iowa, but in South Carolina, Nevada, North Carolina....
Terry can’t go to all 99 counties and supervise those meetings.

UPDATE: The implementation of Barack Obama’s takeover of the Internet is less than 45 days away. And as Marsha Blackburn says, if Congress does not take action to stop Barack Obama, the government will “control the Internet” in a little over the month.
These links were great! I appreciate all the info you provide.
No, he can’t. But counties come after caucus straw votes have made headlines, and Branstad/Walker almost certainly will have reps in each county. Delegates whose fave candidate didn’t do well tend to leave the next level up to establishment-types.
There will plenty of counties and precincts that won’t accept Branstad’s direction. Paul will get a few. Santorum will get a few. Maybe even Huck and Carson. But now, Cruz and Walker look to be the big players.
Pass on Bush, Hillary will just have to win, and even if Bush were to win same result as Hillary. It’s pretty sad statement to what so-called conservatives will accept as a Republican nominee when Hillary is trying to run to the left of Jeb. I’m not voting for any more damned liberals I don’t care if they have that precious (R) in front of their names or not.
You mean all of those candidates we allowed the media to select?
I suspect the same will happen again this election cycle.
I’m waiting for Christie to rear his ugly head and be held up by the media as the Republican Party’s savior.
We split our votes for a multitude of candidates who should never have run in the first place.
Then the big name moderate gets the moderate Republican vote and the cross over democrat vote in the primaries.
We wind up with good guys with 10-20%, and the moderate with 30% plus. The moderate winds up with the delegates, the nation loses again.
Dole, Bush, McCain, and Romney played us like a violin, and if we’re not smart, this year will be no different.
We thought those moderates were all out. Were they?
You may have been voicing agreement, which sailed over my head.
If so, I apologize my post didn’t intimate that.

So what is your point?
Just that the Indies are large enough to have the major voice in the election, but they are rarely polled.
They get polled plenty in the general, but the party primaries is not where they get a lot of interest, or show much interest.
By the way, in 2012, Mitt Romney cleaned up with the Independent vote against Obama, he easily won their vote.
“Okay folks, do you want another period like the one from Reagan until now?”
If we don’t elect a real conservative in 2016, we won’t have anything as good as the last 25 years. We will be in full on fascism, with no hope of turning it around short of CWII.
I was voicing my agreement - in my own special sarcastic manner.
Agreed...
Thank you Airborne.
Glad we could agree on this.
