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

[Silverbug1980]

I am enthused about our showing...


But I am just utterly disgusted, and depressed when it comes to the larger population of America. It's just sobering.

But then again, our strong showing gives me some hope..

Just think I will go to bed before I go nuts.

 

[SlowSki]

this is awesome

 

[Omnica]

What happened to our highly-touted, #1 ground game? We lost to some dude who barely has anybody working for his campaign, barely raised any money, and probably shouldn't have qualified for some of the televised denates?

This is tsrange. Behold the power of the television

 

[moonshine5757]

I'm so ticked off. I really thought people were better than this. Are all old people this easy to manipulate?

 

[pen_thief]

Ron just let the solider who CNN cut off talk <3

 

[jordie]

Crap, he isn't talking about the foreign policy!!

 

[bunklocoempire]

Eastside!

Woot! I got my grade school education off of 7th street not a block from Strohs Brewery... or was it Olympia at the time...(?)

Still got grade school friends on the Eastside some 30 years later!

 

[tremendoustie]

Actually, I think this result will push us higher in the national polls -- it's big time positive exposure. I think newt continues to drop and we pick up a lot of his supporters. Santorum will suck the wind out of perry and bachman's sails, and probably rise a few percent.

 

[Omnica]

I heard Obama supporter were going to go out and vote for Santorum

Indeed

 

[TheeJoeGlass]

No. Support Gary Johnson for 3rd party.

This is all we can do now.

 

[jordie]

Wasted his chance :/ Should have given the answer he was going to give to CNN.

 

[Ekrub]

I remember a few months ago people were freaking out we didn't win the Ames straw poll. This might be an actual election but delegate wise we are what, 1 behind Santorum and Romney? And Santorum is not going anywhere.

Look at Ron, he is full of energy tonight. This is a victory. Proud to be part of this movement tonight.

 

[GeorgiaAvenger]

Holy crap Rand is going to tear somebodies head off!

 

[AlexG]

Summary? I can't watch.

The same soldier CNN cut off when he was explaining Ron's foreign policy to a reporter. Paul invited him to speak infront of the crows

 

[Gravik]

Romney has zero chance against Obama. If he does end up with the Rep nomination, I would bet a preposterous amount of money on an Obama victory.

Obama would eat Romney up and spit him out. Plus Obummer has waaaaaaaaaay more campaign money at his disposal.

 

[opinionatedfool]

No he doesn't. Not in the least. Wtf are you watching?

Lol, yeah, what are you talking about? I'm sure he is a little disappointed, but he is is looking pretty upbeat considering the loss. He is also doing freaking awesome considering the crap that's been thrown at him.

Someone needs to give this guy the number to the suicide hotline. Wow!

 

[FreeTraveler]

The mainstream media won. I don't see any way for Ron Paul to win the nomination. Tonight was my last night in politics. I hope all of you have good lives, and survive the next several years as the economy collapses and WWIII starts. I'm going to focus on finding a tiny place in the country somewhere, and learning how to be self sufficient.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Sunshine patriots are a dime a dozen anyway.

 

[eduardo89]

So I wonder when the "Fire Jesse Benton" threads are going to start....

Iowa Doesnt Matter Right??
