We know after the “rally” the other day that Huckabee and Santorum are staying in to help Trump.

Iowans need to maximize their vote and stand with Ted Cruz.

You’ve done nothing to get zotted, Mr. “lesbian” is just showing his anti-constitutional fascist political stripes.

Ted Cruz's supporters are just more polite and tend to "sit back" when swarmed by commenters who post over the top personal insults (I know first hand)

I resemble that remark.

Probably puts a good dent in the outcome of the ongoing FR caucus as well, in addition to online polls not being "scientific".

This poll also shows that Cruz would only get 1 delegate less than Trump if the results stand. So not a substantive "loss" at all.

Good point!

Then again, not a substantive loss for Trump if he's 2nd.

Rubio support is a big factor too.

Well, hopefully the networks abandon the useless undercard debate from now on. Those two guys won’t have the money to last after Iowa.

Who knows what will happen Monday night. But I know this: I am happy I finally have an anti-illeglal immigrant candidate who is winning the polling in almost every state. Trump is in as good shape as he could possibly be given Iowa’s politically religious bent, evangelicals etc. I’d rather be in the shape we’re in as opposed to supporters of Ted.

Trump 2016.

You only post anti Trump stuff. Much of it the same story from multiple sources. You then deride him at every chance you get rather than advocating for a candidate. Your hate for the man that took Walker out is your driving force. In my dictionary that is definition 4 of crap.

I haven’t voted in that poll.

A lot of people don’t take pollster’s calls, I know I don’t.

Also, polls like Drudge: What are they counting? - “votes” from where, Zimbabwe - Russia - France?? - no one knows their political bend, their “party.”

Good. Sometimes it’s good for a person to get a break from the forum, even if it’s a forced break.

LOL... They have put me in time out for some somewhat inappropriate threads. In retrospect... it sucked.

I like you too, but trolling is trolling, even if you dress it up to look like support for another candidate.

You only post anti Trump stuff.

My threads

And what makes your observation even funnier, is that I was derided this morning for posting an article on national security instead of a political piece.

Comment 11:

"I cannot imagine a worse time to toss that "STUFF" on the forum.

This is just so much noise right now."...

and Comment 23:

"Bogus distraction from domestic tyranny and decline."

I voted for Walker in the last poll to make up for you being so rude to those nice people.

I post threads and almost never go on other threads.

I post threads (back them up with linked material) and try to have a civil exchange.

Here are some numbers:

Total Iowa Registered Republicans as of 1/4/16 = 612,112
- per Iowa Secretary of State website

(The 2012 total Republican caucus vote was 121,255).

These are the possible turnout scenarios for 2016:

If 120,000 turn out, that = 19.6% turnout

If 140,000 turn out, that = 22.8%

If 160,000 turn out, that = 26.1%

It is entirely possible that closer to 160,000 could turn out this year, just a one-third increase over 2012 and little more than a quarter of total registered Republicans.

Add to that the number of party-switchers who will re-register on the spot at the caucuses Monday evening and the results could well be YUGE!

Thx.....

Rubio might surge to 2nd and even if he comes in a strong 3rd...the story afterwards will be a lot about him.
