Well I see they managed to find some votes for Romney. Supposedly they “undercounted” Romney votes. Romney wins by 14 votes, according to Rove. Funny, Santorum was ahead till they suddenly “lost” the vote 2 hours ago. Bunch of criminals.

Rove is spinning that Romney won by 18 because of “lost paperwork”. His buddies at the RNC told him. Geez. You can’t make this stuff up.

On the bright side, whoever wins in the IA GOP caucus usually loses the battle for the nomination.

The Iowa GOP put their "special sauce" on the remaining votes... Romney, the establishment candidate, will win.

But this is still a great night for Santorum...don't let anyone say different!

And New Hampshire almost never votes for the same candidate that Iowa does. So maybe it’s a good thing Romney won?

Here’s hoping he bombs in NH. I think Newt or Santorum may be able to take him out there.

I was most impressed when coming into Iowa, Santorum went out pounded the pavement; and met the voters ALL OVER Iowa. He "worked" for every vote he got tonight, or should I say he earned every vote he received. He did not have the money like other candidates; nor the paparazzi, as in the media pretty much ignored him. He showed focus and did not bellyache, get all pompous and prima donna like [won't mention any names].

Caught Mrs. Santorum on C-Span tonight and she focused on "the family" and their upbringing.

You said he won tonight even though he may come in second...if anything; like the well known telecom ad, Santorum's ad should now state:

"Can you hear me now!!!?"

The voting only started this evening and ended not that long ago.......now how can we have a ballot counting error like this, like Florida, so damn quick?

Shenanigans ....the stuff elections are made of.

“Bunch of criminals.”

I am so tired of my tagline, but there is no reason to change it.

I heard Santorum on Mark Levins radio show a few weeks ago and Mark asked him “Are you going to the Trump debate?” He said “Heck yeah! I NEED that debate. I am looking forward to mixing it up with Newt even if nobody else comes!” That really impressed me to hear his enthusiasm and courage.

This whole story stinks. It does look like the establishment is in panic mode though. They put the fix in here against Santorum, they are dragging McLame out for an endorsement tomorrow, we just found out that Mittens dumped a lot of resources into IA for a substantial win that didn’t happen.

25% Poll Ceiling Mittens is looking in sad shape right now. No coronation for him.

No, I think Santorum is helped the most. He’s getting the exposure he needs and the more he’s seen, the more he’s liked. He’s going to gain momentum by the day. Santorum is rel. Romney is fake. People will see that.
