trump was 2nd but Rubio was only one point behind him. Rubio could pass trump and move up in the polls I hope.

Huckabee just announced he's dropping out. Huckabee is super uber conservative. My guess is that his voters will go over to Rubio or Cruz. His uber conservatives will NOT move over to Trump. And I'm not saying that because I don't like Trump. Huckabee has always been way too far right for me. If they go over to Rubio then he'll be ahead of Trump. If they go over to Cruz he'll be solidly above Trump.

Lindley · Guru

I liked Huckabee, I got to meet him and he is super nice and real funny.

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

I think Trump wasted our time calling Kelly a bimbo and other stupidity. He either needs to get focused on America and his message or expect more of the same.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I like him tons. I think he seems like a really great guy. Someone I'd love to get the know. But I don't think he can win. I don't think he can garner the support. He's far too right to get enough votes. But like I tell my kids, you can like someone and still think they're not doing a good job.

The reporter was right. He said Trump came out and said a lot of nothing. He said he loved Iowa and might buy a farm there. He went on to say he loved Iowa a few more times. The reporter said he needs to get some substance.

Clinton and Sanders are both 50%.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

I know! It's nuts!

Lindley · Guru

I hope Rubio moves up even more. He is closer then they expected. I really like him. He has a beautiful family, he is young and smart. I think he can beat both Clinton and sanders.

Lindley · Guru

Sanders went down to 40%. Feels like a horse race.

I agree. I would like to see him in second.

Lindley · Guru

No 49%. Sorry

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

It does feel like a horse race.

WYSIWYG · Guru

I'm glad Cruz won the Iowa Caucus. The Iowa Caucus winner rarely wins the Nomination.

Lindley · Guru

Obama won the Iowa caucus and so did Bush so did Clinton (Bill)

WYSIWYG · Guru

I didn't say "never wins".

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

I find it interesting that Rubio is that popular in Iowa but had done next to nothing in the polls elsewhere. Think Jeb will finally drop out?

Dona Worry Be Happy · Vette's SS!!

Bernie and Hilary are still neck and neck. When will the final results be posted? Or are they? The only one I found was only 98% of votes counted, and they are 49.9 and 49.5 with Hilary just leading.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

I just cannot believe that many people are voting for Hillary. The world worries me.

The big loser in that is Bush. Rubio will now be seen as the establishment candidate. Bush's support will dry up.

Trump still has an outside shot, but he has to win South Carolina.

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

Rubio is worrisome. He doesn't show up to vote half the time. He was one of the architects of amnesty. He seems to go in whatever direction the wind blows. I don't trust him.

FNW · Guru

I don't care for Rubio. But if he can beat the dems, fine. But he's my last choice. I like either Trump or Cruz. I also like Christie.

Lindley · Guru

They called Iowa for Hillary

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

They just interviewed Huckabee and he gave a really fantastic speech. He also said he wasn't endorsing anyone.

Lindley · Guru

Sorry I missed it. My husband is channel surfing to watch a hockey game.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

He basically said he had poured all his hard work, hopes, and dreams into this and now he knows how the average American feels when they've lost a business they started up or job they've had for 30 years. He also said there's no other place where a kid who grew up in a two bedroom home on a little side street could even imagine doing great things. It was actually pretty touching. He said he's not endorsing anyone right now nor in the near future but he reserves the right to endorse someone in the future. He also comment that his endorsement probably wouldn't make a difference.

just Czech · Give Me Grand's!

I liked Huckabee a lot. He's a good man.

Lindley · Guru

He is pretty classy. To my knowledge I never heard him say anything nasty about anyone. He may say why their policy is wrong but never got nasty about it.

Thank you NJN

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

You're welcome. I've always liked and respected him. I just always thought that he wouldn't make it. He's super conservative. Even among the conservatives he's viewed as very conservative.

just Czech · Give Me Grand's!

He has his heart in the right place. IMHO, Huchabee would have been a good president.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

I think he would too. Just too many people don't agree with his stance on some things. Things like gay marriage and abortion. He is known for his stance on abortion saying that absolutely no baby should be aborted whether they are from rape, incest, or have problems with them. Not saying I agree or disagree but a majority of country doesn't feel like this.

just Czech · Give Me Grand's!

Majority of the country is nuts.

Generation X is taking over. The entitlement generation, they will destroy this country, IMHO.

WYSIWYG · Guru

I liked Huckabee as well, I just never believed he even had the remotest chance of winning. He's not far enough from center to make the Party Members happy.

That's why Rubio and Cruz have a shot, they are so far from center they are almost around the globe and starting to become Democrat. Trump is doing as well as he is because, well, let's face it, he's "really out there too", just not in an uber conservative way.

Actually, I'm going to take this back. Exit polls show that even the people that voted for Hillary don't actually trust her. They weren't voting for Hillary so much as against Bernie. I guess for many, a lying, cheating, murdering bitch that knows how to work the system is a better choice than a bumbling socialist. When you are voting for the lesser of two evils, it's a tough call.

Would you respect them more if they voted for Bernie the avowed socialist who wants free, free, free, free?

They actually did. Almost exactly 50/50.

If a higher tax rate means I am not crippled by insurance costs every month, and my kids will graduate college without $100,000 dollars in debt? I can live with it.

Nothing is ever 'free', the money has to come from somewhere, and while I don't know much about finances, the charts I have seen do seem to show where the money will be cut, and where it will be spent without any gaps, and a lot of sources claim that his plans save the average Americans and the country itself substantially.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

Oh my gosh! Seven of the precincts were so close, they decided the winner by coin toss! And Hillary won 6 out of the 7. Yeah - this is going to get ugly. LOL!

What difference does that make if they can't get a job because companies won't hire? Oh, it doesn't matter, they can just go on welfare.
