Watching a couple of them live on CSPAN. Interesting....but what a fustercluck.
Best part was when the head dude in West Des Moine was filling out something and frustratingly said "How the hell do you spell Bute a judge??"

Trump will win in Nov. 2020 election...

It was R.I.G.G.E.D. BY Hillary to quelch Bernie at the gate...

If he ever got the nomination...she couldn't handle it.

Screwing Bernie again. Doesn't matter, Trump will be re-elected. I think Bernie could have defeated Trump in 2016, but not this time.

That assessment was long before we even knew the app was blown up.

Seriously....can anyone explain why Iowa gets to go first....sooooo much attention and an outsized role in weeding out candidates?

Almost feel sorry for the poor slobs that spent tens of millions and walked through 99 counties and ate countless heart attack breakfasts.....only to be told "maybe go see what's going on in New Hampshire....we'll let you know later if anyone won here"

hillary clinton now being referred to as a "coding issue in the reporting system"...

bernie ran for one reason this year... he knew he could threaten to play spoiler and knew he would again be payed handsomely to drop out and endorse the dnc nominee... that's it...

but they're getting rid of him via technology instead of a big fat check this time and hoping trump hate alone will drive his base to the clinton endorsed nominee...

I was just watching CBS This Morning and am shocked. A panel of 5 where commenting on the caucus, and all 5 agreed that the winner of the Iowa Caucus was Trump. I had to double check the channel, and replay it to make sure I heard it correctly.



1:15 in.

it's true...this reflects badly on the Dems, prolly the worst stumble out the gates imaginable (well maybe a glitch that erased all Bernie votes woulda been worse)...what a ****show

in this era of political paranoia, conspiracy theories and meddling, this gives Trump plenty of ammo for the up-coming campaign...buckle your seat belts...

The "hawkeye caucii" has always been a cluster. It makes no sense to me. While I get the gist of it, grass roots and all, it's run by the campaigns so it just seems "staged" from the outset. As I understand it, each "group" is for a candidate. They're there to persuade more folks to go with their candidate. So it's more campaigning than anything?

But hey, "Is this heaven? No, it's Iowa." 🍺

Each state has the right to run it's "primary" under its own rules.

New Hampshire state law[6] stipulates that the presidential primary shall be on the second Tuesday in March (the date when town meetings and non-partisan municipal elections are traditionally held), but that the Secretary of State can change the date to ensure that the New Hampshire primary will take place at least seven days before any "similar election" in any other state. The Iowa caucuses are not considered to be a similar election. In recent election cycles, the New Hampshire primary has taken place the week after the Iowa caucus.
