Iowa Caucuses Return Watching - OFFICIAL THREAD!!! (1/3/12)

[ronpaulfollower999]

We're losing ground. Romney up now.

 

[tbone717]

Hear hear! All the noobs need to realize that there has been a libertarian movement in this country for a long time and for those of us who have been a part of it, this whole experience is a mind blowing improvement over what we used to fight for back in the 20th (and even if the first eight years of the 21st)

Correct. Though I am new on the forum, I have been at this since 1988.

 

[Lovecraftian4Paul]

One positive sign: I sure don't remember things being this up in the air in Iowa for hours last time. A lot can change overnight.

I remember waking up the next day during the 2010 elections and seeing results that I never thought I'd see in the morning.

 

[matt0611]

But he has the MEDIA!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup, I couldn't even congradulate santorum for winning this. He did nothing. He has no appeal. It was 100% fucking media in the last week.

They have this country by the fucking balls.

 

[sailingaway]

I don't appreciate those people who attack those of us who are trying to look at this realistically.

You see, all I care about is winning the nomination. I don't care if we we come in second place to the nomination and miss by one delegate. I'll still pull my hair out. The fact is that time is running out, and we don't have forever to gradually build up support. We cannot count on the mainstream media helping us. In fact, we can count on them trying to boost other candidates every time it seems we are doing well in a state. Also, we can count on their hit pieces, attacking us on 20 year old issues. What is so bad is not only the liberals are against us, but also the neocons.

We have to start WINNING states. Not coming in second. Someone please tell me how we are going to do this?

what good is this?

 

[Crotale]

We're owning Mitchell County - over 30% atm with 80% reported.

 

[puppetmaster]

OMG! Sunshine Patriots need to STFU. I've been fighting this war for 40 FRIGGIN' YEARS and this is BY FAR the best thing that's happened for Liberty in that 40 years.


40 YEARS

YES

40 YEARS

you are right, this is huge

 

[Sola_Fide]

Guys, remember? 1st doesn't count, you look at who came in 2nd or 3rd.

exactly.

 

[amabala]

While I really wanted to see Dr. Paul win this tonight, a close 3rd is not a game killer. Santorm does not have the money or support to play till the end. After tonight, it will be basically Paul and Romney. As more footage of Romney's flip-flopping get exposure, he will start to lose support. The only place for those supporters to go will be RP. I expect Noot to be dropping out maybe after NH...

It's going to be a Romney v Paul race in a couple of weeks.

 

[pacu44]

They were doing that at 6pm

they need ratings, we are the political junkies, they know what they are doing...

 

[Muwahid]

I'm expecting a quick turnaround, more populated areas have not been tabulated yet, university areas, and so on, paul could pull thousands of votes over these two clowns in minutes

 

[bluesc]

Romney took polk. I hope ron gets woodbury.

What?!?! He just jumped 2000 votes and Ron barely moved. That sucks.

 

[Okie RP fan]

We need to continue to hold steady, hope, and pray.

It's not over just yet.

 

[RickyJ]

Most of the santorum counties have 80%+ reporting.....if anything, he's not going to win first guys

I hope that is right. Ron is down 1800 votes right now and only 41% left to count.

 

[raginggran]

I think we're going to make up a huge gap here shortly guys. Stay tuned.

YES PLEASE !!!

We need more votes counted where they count .............................

 

[RonPaulGangsta]

Rigged

 

[jordie]

Polk County is Romney's. We're done.

 

[wstrucke]

oh... that was a nasty update. 4% behind Romney overall now.

 

[LibertyPhanatic]

Damn. Romney just had a huge jump...
