2/1/16

[markomalley]

A search shows that nobody's opened up a live thread for tonight's caucuses. So here goes.

Predictions? For both the GOP and Dem nominations?

Eyewitness Accounts? See any funny business going on?

Yes that is true.

Rubio giving a good speech. He may be the best speaker out of the top 3.

[TEARUNNER14]

Its not over until the fat liar Hillary says its over!
Just blowing juicy corrupt smoke since America seems to thrive on corruption lately!
I like Rubio talking about Jesus Christ! America needs a leader who has Christian values, not Muslim or communist socialist values!

[Yaelle]

I hate that too. As if Gd cares which sports team wins, or Gd is only on the side of the winner of an election.

I am a Trump supporter and will remain a Trump supporter.

I am sick of professional politicians and this country is in a mess...

Ted Cruz, I like him, but he is a professional politician as is Marco Rubio.
They will promise the world and then look at what they do...

LOOK AT THE DUDE WHO HAS RUINED THIS COUNTRY..

I WILL NEVER VOTE HILLARY OR SANDERS. NEVER.

I CAN SUPPORT CRUZ BUT NOT RUBIO...BUT UNTIL DONALD TRUMP DROPS OUT ON HIS OWN, I'LL SUPPORT HIM...

AS for you folks who trash Trump, I have no respect for you...

listening to Rubio right now...he mentioned his good friend Cruz, and he thanked the drop out Huck...I did not hear him mention Donald J. Trump...did he? i may have missed it...

but if he did not...voters, that is what a professional washington politician is...

[dfwgator]

Told you, Fox is going to ignore Cruz and go all in for Rubio.

CLINTON 620 SANDERS 614

Per Drudge. I just want to see Hillary and Monica's boyfriend with glum faces when they lose to a crusty old socialist from Vermont who doesn't own a comb.

I'll vote for Trump Cruz or even Rubio - Amnesty is not a done deal with any of those three. Giving it to HiLIARy would be to awful to contemplate.

With hiLIARy you WILL lose your 2A rights ...

[Fundamentally Fair]

Maybe Trump was right. Iowans are stupid.

B-b-b-but he NEVER said that!

[Tennessee Nana]

on the radio WMAL

Cruz gets 8 delegates Trump and Rubio both get 7 Carson gets 3

[MEG33]

I was surprised after seeing earlier polling...Happily surprised. Winning is heartwarming indeed.
Trump seems to have New Hampshire so I am not expecting a win there.

May God Guide Our nation ...I am ready for November!
Obama has tried to wreck our nation...and will keep trying til January .

I’ve been a Cruz guy, but lately finding him a bit oily. I’d trust him with the football though.

I saw him at his fourth and last campaign stop on a hot August evening in Georgia where he started at the Red State convention in the morning and went to three other cities in his bus with Heidi and the girls covering several hundred miles, finishing at about 9PM.

He gave a full speech, stayed to talk to folks, reporters, etc. At every stop, I imagine someone is waiting for him to say the wrong thing or to show weakness. He signed my book, and was very pleasant to me personally.

To some degree, you have to be a bit of a machine to do what he is doing. 99 Iowa counties in winter is no treat. He has the fire in his belly. He also has an organized plan, and a strategy that has proven to win in a tough race after his worst week in the campaign.

I'd trust him with the football as well.

Dont vote for Rubio he is supported by big money for one reason. To give out amnesty and open borders for the greedy. Every word he speaks is dishonest.

[Neu Pragmatist]

Rubio is a non-starter .. if Rubio is on the ticket we are screwed .. that will mean the establishment has total control

[ez]

Holding the news of a squeaky Sanders win until after bedtime?

[Hattie]

Rubio wont shut up. Acts like he won.

[Baldwin77]

SHUT UP, RUBIO ! You did not win.

[MayflowerMadam]

“Hillary is a criminal. IS SHE ABOVE THE LAW? she will never win.”

Oh, c’mon. With Democrats, being a criminal is a resume enhancer. Throw in some pedophilia — even better! A shoo-in.
