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

[Silverbug1980]

We can still win the nomination. But realistically...I don't think this country as a whole can be saved. Oh there will be a country called USA, but will it be anything any of our forefathers (or even us) recognize? Crazy how things have changed. How idiotic the populace is, and ready to be spoon fed by the MSM.

Rome freaking 2.0.

 

[angelatc]

Watching Ron on Fox. Rand looks pissed.

 

[Moo2400]

At least our 3rd place is a strong 3rd. With 21% or 22%, only a few points from first, we can say we did well. I don't think we can hope for anything more than 2nd in New Hampshire, and likely no more than 3rd in South Carolina or Florida. We won't have another another chance at victory until Nevada, which isn't for another month. I think it's still possible we could pull it off, but it will be difficult. Make no mistake that the odds are still against us, hence why we need to keep giving it our all.

 

[White Bear Lake]

Can't prevent the MSM from doing anything. We can amaze and sway the fence sitters we know with our predictions -face it, WE can anticipate TPTB.

Keep on educating the masses. Keep on keeping on.

Eastside!

Some perspective:

John McCain came in 4TH in Iowa!

But he won New Hampshire and Romney, barring some unforseen event, is likely to win NH. Paul is not going to be the nominee because that's what Republicans don't want and it's not what the media wants. But you know what? None of this is going to matter at all because Obama is going to be reelected. None of the other candidates have the enthusiasm that RP has.

In 2016 I think Ron will be too old to run but I think Rand will have a much better shot than his dad if he runs. Rand is far more polished and well-spoken than his dad.

Wow everyone is carrying Ron Paul's speech on a popular night, this is a big plus for me. The first time multiple networks are showing Ron Paul live and uninterrupted

 

[tnvoter]

No. Support Gary Johnson for 3rd party.

I don't feel disenfranchised. I feel... like not swearing to uphold in the Constitution again as serviceman. Unless of course Ron's the nominee, or Gary Johnson wins. Good night liberty lovers

 

[KramerDSP]

Ron Paul is the most unflappable human being I have ever seen. The truest leader there is!

He is smiling and happy. He said "I dream of the day that a President will say "We are all Austrians"!"

 

[bluesc]

Pretty darn close. We'll get em. within MOE of getting first.

There is no MOE.

 

[Defining Obscene]

Santorum takes Iowa, Huntsman will compete in NH, and Perry will compete in SC... Spoiler after spoiler...

 

[apriori]

I'm crushed. We needed momentum from a first place Iowa finish to convince fence-sitters that Paul is a contender. It's gonna be hard to convince people he isn't a wasted vote if Santorum can beat him by running on Bush's 2004 platform. Absurd.

 

[wgadget]

Some of you need to calm down. Welcome to the big leagues. Nothing comes easy and nothing goes like you dreamed it. We have the best candidate with the best message. We have money. We have national attention. We have a professional campaign with a viable plan for success. Watch and learn, and stop with all the drama. We need to stay positive and keep working. With proportional delegates this is going to be a very long campaign. We have lots of time to win people over and our opponents have too much time to keep the truth about themselves hidden. Patience. Focus. Work.

Yep and when the negative comments are coming from people named NASONEX the whiner, hammy the porker and SaulPaulinsky, what do you expect. And their combined total of posts is under 200. Go figure.

 

[SylvianDark]

People are being too negative here. It's one state. Do not quit yet! Also look how close the numbers are. If there was a clear cut favorite I'd be concerned. This is still anyone's race!

 

[svobody]

Ron looks bummed. Bums me out.

 

[CplKoontz]

[PursuePeace]

[Crotale]

We're losing Story County to Romney now. It's over. But we must keep fighting, we have come so far and although we just fell short we are so close.

Next time we will win. Rand Paul 2016.

 

[Son of Detroit]

Watching Ron's speech makes me feel better.

 

[GeorgiaAvenger]

He dropped his bid anyway and is 100% for Ron now.

hoax!

 

[Blue_Merle]

It's over folks. Romney will win, he will beat Obama and by spring 2013 we will be bombing Iran.

Count on it.

The Establishment plays HARDBALL.
