Watching Fox SUCKS!!!! Ok I am thrilled Jonie won, but Brett was ready to say something about Mississippi and stupid Sean came back on. Sean is just drowning on about nothing (right now). I would rather Brett talk about the primary instead of Sean’s nonsense. Ok he is saying good things, but they could post pone his show for 30 minutes.
that's assuming one can.
I know! FOX cuts back to HANNITY yak before Bret can give a complete sentence on returns.
They have done that twice! Now o’reilly and no update.
Yep so frustrating. I don’t watch Fox much except during election type nights. I actually would watch CNN if they only discussed the primary.....although CNN is doing quite a job on the terrorist trade. I am surprised. I turned it over to Fox hoping that the primary would be the priority at least for awhile....no such luck.

But it shouldn’t matter right? I mean the Tea Party is dead...or something.

True....lol. I love it. I can’t believe that McDaniels is 49.9 percent.....only 89 percent. I hope a last ditch effort for the RINO to get over 50 doesn’t happen like in Virginia (I know it was a Dem who won but the RINO is just as bad).
“Ernst wins in Iowa.”
Yayy! I believe Sarah endorsed Ernst!

I don’t understand the math showing on the WLOX site:
92% OF PRECINCTS REPORTING
Chris McDaniel 139,446 50%
Thad Cochran (Inc.) 136,579 49%
Thomas Carey 4,481 2%
Says 92% of the precincts reporting,,and the percentage breakdown is 50,49 and 2%.. That adds up to 101% ,,,how does that work?

Thad Cochran (Inc.) 136,848 49%
Thomas Carey 4,485 2%
They’re rounding the numbers.
They are rounding to whole numbers. If you look at returns listed in decimal (i.e., 49.7%), those totals will tally to 100%.

Those are the actual numbers. It rounds to 50-59-2. Pretty silly of them, but it might just be the way their software does it.
I think they are rounding up just to whole numbers it is veryclose!

Gap is closing. Probably accurate to say that Cochran’s democrats were summoned to the polls before they closed and we are seeing the tail end of that.
Looks like a runoff is going to happen.
There are about 15,000 votes if the precincts are average sized, with McDaniel holding a 1500 vote lead.
Will there be a run off?
Me too. I also switched to cnn. And you’re right— they are covering the deserter straight up. Goofy Carney blarny, John McCain and a Columbia POW. I’m done with O’Reilly & Hannity, but DVR Bret, Greta and Kelly.
