historically, the winner in Iowa does NOT go on to win the nomination, you do realize this don’t you?

Only twice has Iowa predicted the national nominee and winner. In fact, you are statistically better off NOT winning Iowa. And why should a state that goes blue be the first one allowed to pick a GOP contender? I am SICK of Iowa, Iowans, and the press constantly talking about a Byzantine electoral system that means nothing to anyone down the road. I don’t care what their local ministers think or say. From their State Fair to their weather to the price of their corn, who cares? (And I am from the Midwest and don’t relate to a thing they say or do.) And so few of them vote anyway so their voice is amplified. They will vote for Hillary, as they always vote DEM, because IOWA really stands for “Idiots Out Walking Around”. Donald Trump was right about them all along!

Oh no! Did you hear that, Laura? Now that I came in first in the Iowa caucus, there's NO WAY I'm getting the party's nomination OR the Presidency!
