Not sure which candidate would be thinking this, probably each one – unless we’re the ones at the Mill. Discuss.

Gotta run. This has been a blast!

My sense is that Rubio “won”. Which is probably a good thing. While I am highly unlikely to vote R, I’m not off the mindset that it is preferable to “stack the deck”. I think Tednald Crump poses less threat to the Dem nominee but not no threat. Elections can be weird. And a Tednald Crump presidency would be a disaster.Report
I agree. Rubio far exceeded expectations, which makes him a winner.
And yet, hearing him speak now, he’s still unappealing.Report

DONALD J TRUMP will defend, protect, and Keep IOWA SAFE!!!
HE will not let IOWAN Evangelicals Down. He is straight forward and Genuine in his positions.
VOTE #TRUMP 3016Report
I couldn’t agree more: vote Trump in 3016.Report
Damn you, Poe’s Law!!!!!Report
The races are surprisingly close. Cruz has a clear but narrow lead over Trump and Rubio. Trump will stick with it until NH but if he doesn’t win there, will drop out. Wonder how hard the establishment worked to get Rubio up to 23 percent.
HRC and Sanders are within the margin of error. Really down to the wire!!Report
Shortest, least bombastic Trump speech ever. Dude looked dumbfounded.Report
Here’s what strikes me as odd.
A few weeks back, Trump seemed to signal that he knew he wasn’t going to win Iowa. Well, less of a signal. More of a “neg”.
That’s something that he could have run with. “I knew I wasn’t going to win Iowa. Now watch what happens in New Hampshire! You aren’t going to even begin to believe South Carolina!”Report
That’ll probably be what we hear starting tomorrow.
Or just a total meltdown, which would be fine by me.Report
