Free Republic

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Well, it's now official. Panic has set in. Panic has set in maybe in both establishments, but certainly in the Republican establishment, panic is now official. And it's all because, up until last night, everything was theoretical. But now Trump won, and he outperformed the polling. But before you get too crazy, I want to remind you of something. People are talking about a revolution going on out there, and I can understand why people might be saying so when you look at Bernie Sanders over Hillary, and Trump coming out of nowhere and dominating the Republican...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: You go over to the Democrat side, folks, I made it a point to listen to Bernie Sanders and Hillary last night. I think one of the things that happens in the primary season is that -- and I think it's true of both parties -- you really ignore the other party because you have your own internecine battles going on, and the immediate objective is to win the nomination of your party, which means win the contests against your fellow party members. And what the other party is doing kind of gets shunted off to the...

We want to thank everybody. Thank you very much. We -- yes right, right. Well, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what. What do we really want to thank right? We want to thank the people of New Hampshire right? (CHEERS) Do we love the people of New Hampshire? (APPLAUSE) You know, I said it and I said it even a year ago. I said I think I'm going to do really well there because I'm here a lot. And it's so beautiful. And I love it so much. And I love the people. And I said I actually...

Despite Donald Trump's victory in New Hampshire, what is the chance that Republicans will nominate Ted Cruz and that he will go on to win the presidency? The website ElectionBettingOdds gives Cruz a 14.5 percent chance of winning the nomination - his victory in the Iowa caucuses and what looks like a third place showing in New Hampshire notwithstanding. It puts his chances of actually winning the presidency at 4.3 percent.

Throughout the Republican presidential primary, and we still have a very long way to go, the Republican Establishment has revealed itself to be the nastiest, meanest, smallest group of smugs I have ever come across. I honestly didn’t think people like this actually existed outside of the fictional Omega Theta Pi frat boys in “Animal House.” But exist they do, and these detestable snobs despise their fellow Republicans much more than the likes of a Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. The venomous attacks the GOP Establishment have waged against Trump supporters have been way beyond anything Democrats have ever faced...

Donald Trump won a convincing victory in New Hampshire. We congratulate him, and hope that we will not have to do it many more times.

Uh... Fox News Calls NH for Trump, with Vote Totals and Percentages by Aurelius I don't know exactly what's going on, but Fox News has not only called New Hampshire for Donald Trump, but they've included vote totals for each of the candidate and percentages. Obviously the votes haven't been cast this early and the counting begins in 11 hours. Explain this:

Donald Trump won the New Hampshire primary Tuesday -- according to a premature Fox News report. Citing every precinct reporting, Fox News' website accidentally published election results declaring Trump the winner with 28 percent support and 14 delegates. "During routine testing in preparation for the New Hampshire primary a malfunction occurred which briefly showed errant data on our website," Fox News Chief Digital Officer Jeff Misenti said in a statement. "This error has been rectified. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused."
