Off topic again but sanders is only 3 delegates of clinton

Wow. Two tenths of a percentage point on the Democratic side, with 89.53% reporting. We believe that’s known as a nail-biter.

Trump will be speaking soon tho
 
We'll see how he spins this tomorrow.

Why wait tomorrow when you can have it today?:

Something of note, his voice is a lot lower and he doesn't seem as energetic as he normally is. Even though he's (surprisingly) being a good sport about the loss, I think it was a punch in the gut for him.
 
Romney lost Iowa, and got the nom.
McCain lost Iowa, and got the nom.
Reagan lost Iowa, and got the nom.

Trump is still in the game, but the butthurt is pretty tasty.
 
All the celebration from both sides makes me laugh; have they forgotten they still need to pull it off throughout the nation? Instead, they celebrate like Caesar in triumph. The personality cults of these elections have blinded their subjects.

Especially considering how the last two Iowa winners got their asses kicked.
 
Looks like Clinton is going to pull out a narrow win.
This is what I'm reading from The Guardian:

Clinton takes stage
As Cruz speaks, Clinton takes stage to a Rachel Platten song – to declare victory? She’s up by nine-tenths of a percentage points, with 92.8% reporting.

I think both sides are going to be claiming victory here. Clinton out of numbers, and Sanders because the media has (for the most part) written him off as a joke upstart candidate and he's pulled to within a percent of the foregone conclusion nominee. He's heavily favored to win NH and Clinton was supposed to win Iowa by a wide margin.

I think people have seriously overestimated the loyalty voters have to Clinton, who has bullied and overpowered opposition up until now with a corrupt political machine. They also underestimate the appeal someone with actual measurable policy differences has to Democrats, who have had to eat one shit sandwich after another with corporatist right wing candidates like Obama and Clinton.
 
Again, there's only a three delegate difference between sanders and Clinton. Not a strong performance by someone who is swimming in PAC money and establishment cred.
 
It's now like a tug of war on the Guardian page. They're now reporting that Sanders is ahead by about 7/10ths of a percentage point. Tensions are high and too many early victories.
 
Whats gonna happen to O'Malley's delegates anyway? Could they re-pledge?
 
Meanwhile with the little people, Rand Paul celebrates being the least little of the little people. Someone needs to step on Santorum and put him out of his misery, but I guess he's hoping for the Huckabee voters.
