Live thread to cover today's GOP caucus. News, predictions, opinions, totals, and the like.
Will be heading out about 4 pm or so to get our site ready and do a final review with the precinct chairs. I expect it to be bigger than 2008 with very heavy turnout and we are preparing for that.
We are also ready for disruptions. They simply won't be tolerated. The state party sent us a memo saying if there's any trouble call the cops immediately. Anyone trying to cause problems is going to get a rude awakening.
My predictions of the outcome are a narrow field with about a 10 point spread for the top five with Bachmann far behind in single digits:
Santorum - 24 Romney - 22 Paul - 20 Perry - 17 Gingrich - 14 Bachmann - 4 The Rest - 1
Think things are still in flux and many won't decide till right to the wire, so I'm not terribly confident of any predictions.
KCCI just said
Santorum 25%
Romney 25%
Paul 23%
Real close there Dega

Except Palin was 43 when she got pregnant (maybe 44). So you are a careless liar by 4 to 5 years. And I guess you would have preferred an abortion.
They did and Newt said he would lose.
And lose he did... BIG TIME.
From 1st to 4th in 3 weeks.
“OBAMA would love to blow Santorum’s nose for him”No your just reliably.
From your post to God’s ears!
I like your name for him....LOL.
GO NEWT!
Ha, ha, ha... 2x
Huntsman should drop out too. It’s hilarious how he’s so invisible that nobody here even bothered to call for him to drop out.
FOX has become a haven for all sorts of misfits, lechers, adulterers, and kooks.
But Mark Sanford! That is really too much...trying to give legitimacy to the dregs of American politicians.
This after Alan Colmes’s slanderous lies yesterday.
I was disappointed that Palin did not endorse Santorum tonight on Greta.
This would be a good thing.
Bachmann will never do it.
She is the next Margaret Thatcher, doncha know?
Faux is awful. I am going to local news at the top of the hour.
The Newtie is now Second Tier.
*************
And just 7 weeks ago, he didn’ve even have 5 % in the national polls. Now, he’s tied at 25%
Imagine where he will be 7 weeks from now?
-:)
Santorum 25%, Mittens 24%, Wrong Paul 22%, Newt 14%, Perry 11%, Michele 6%
No question he was a problem...BUT, if Perot doesn’t run (he got 22% of the vote, I believe) Clinton goes back to Arkansas and Hillary does volunteer work for Planned Parenthood throughout the ‘90s.
Yeah, sort of looks like map of the US with the majority of the heartland Republican and east and west Democrats.
Dave,
Check out this map AGAIN. It’s a Huckaboom again! Rick with WINS in 55 and counting counties across the state.. dominating the map of Iowa’s counties.
Wow!!!
