Friends, the Iowa Democratic Caucuses have ended in chaos. Results are still pending because of technical glitches. This allows anyone who under-performed in Iowa -- I'm looking in your direction, Joe Biden -- to claim that the eventual results will be tainted. It allows the eventual winner -- Bernie Sanders? Pete Buttigieg? -- to claim that party insiders sabotaged and delayed the counting, so as to steal their momentum. What it surely does, therefore, is make the Democratic presidential contest more contentious, and that can only be good for Republicans! The following article analyzes the likely consequences of the Iowa results, in terms of the upcoming contests. I would say the big mystery is how the Biden campaign will respond to his miserable performance to date. Can he make a recovery in New Hampshire, Nevada, or South Carolina? Can someone like Mayor Pete become the new standard bearer for moderation? It sure looks to me like Iowa answered remarkably few questions for the Dems...and it definitely posed a number of new ones. Expect an article from me soon analyzing this gargantuan mess.

Dr. Waddy: Looking forward to the article. Well! Surely the Iowa Dem contretempts HAS to be indicative of fraud. It has the two essential ingredients: 1. The left was running. 2. It didn't get what it wanted. Case closed! A massive investigation, taking many months and endless hurly burly, is now in order, yes?But wait, an election is coming up. Oh dear! Whatever is to be done? I know, more childish acting out. Thanx Dems, for providing a useful counterargument for your next tantrum (probably after the President wins reelection)in response to the certain injustice of your having LOST!
ReplyDeleteHa! You're right: it's a small miracle that neither Vladimir Putin nor Brad Parscale has yet been blamed for the Iowa debacle...
ReplyDeleteOh, but don't you know, the Trump supporters are being blamed for the Iowa debacle. The tantrums really don't get boring, I actually find them amusing.
ReplyDeleteDr. Waddy andLinda: I fully expect the next Dem indictment to be that Trump was piloting one of the 9-11 planes but managed to get out in time. Since he was the real DB Cooper he had had practice.
ReplyDeleteHa! You jest, but I'm rather surprised that Trump hasn't yet been accused of murder. What are the Dems waiting for???
