Democrats are not a Democratic Party. The word democratic has been hijacked by the democrat party.

My guess is they will find a car trunk load of uncounted ballots for Uncle Perv.

Fox just put up a graphic on tv saying the Iowa results COULD be released today. This just gets better by the minute.

People regularly get confused because they think they are saying Democratic when they are really saying Demonic.

Yes, Biden called an 83-year-old farmer (former Marine) a liar just for asking a question. The farmer was clearly a Democrat but not a Biden supporter.

People remember Howard Dean's scream after he did poorly in the Iowa caucuses, but it has been reported that his support began to decline after he insulted a voter at an event in Oelwein, Iowa. I wonder if Biden's antics calling the farmer a liar (and similar incidents) contributed to his weak showing.

But at least he will have outperformed his record in 2008 when he got less than 1% of the vote in Iowa.

The caucus site in the trunk of a rental car has not reported yet!

All nonsense. They just didn’t get the result the leadership wanted and made up this excuse.

Rats lie in every instance.

Last night, I went to a Biden rally. I coughed a few time and told my seat mate I had just returned from Cina. All 25 of them left.

Naughty, naughty... LOL!

Bernie likely won in Iowa, but party officials will be seen as once again manipulating the numbers to favor the establishment. I would expect thst Joe Biden will get his numbers inflated. Bernie supporters will go to the convention expecting once again he will be denied the nomination by some backroom deal and be prepared to take to the streets in a replay of Chicago 1968. I could see Bernie running as a third party candidate. The Democrat Party will soon meltdown and could go the way of the Whig party. Bottom lone Trump wins big in November

That’s it. The leadership needs overthrowing. Why on earth couldn’t they find a younger candidate with some charisma and more centrist views?

Or maybe it’s the opposite: an individual needed to come along who could push their way into the mix. Didn’t happen. Guess Democrats just aren’t a very spiffy group.

There are two things at play here:

1) Managing for what you DON’T WANT. This is the rat leadership, they don’t want Trump. Making decisions based on this goal doesn’t take you anywhere but there is a lot of activity. They don’t want the current candidates either.

2) Managing for what you want. Incredibility many of the rat candidates have clear statement of what they want. This alone attracts people even if they don’t understand what the goal is.

I remember in my consulting days, people could tell me in GREAT DETAIL what they didn’t want. But if I asked them what they wanted, there was silence.

Trump is a goal person that very clearly knows what he wants. We hear him and understand the goal.

I’m so glad. He’s the ultimate worst. Even a 1 percent chance of him being president is too much to fathom.

Food for thought!

Obama never endorsed him, which is a statement unto itself. Look for Obama to put his finger on the scale publicly if it looks like Bernie is headed towards the nomination.

Democrats are demonic. We are a democratic Republic but not a democracy. I will never vote for any democrat, demonicrat nor have of professing republicans. I am waiting for an American Party.
