The backwards looking focus on Iowa seems a misguided waste of effort to me. Technically Santorum won IA four years ago... - ty97 Feb 5, 05:08 8
- Because his losing has been turned around on him - this is one of the states he was expected to win, and he didn't (or "didn't") -- (edited) - Roger More Feb 5, 05:47 2

  - As I said below, I have no idea what the campaigns are entitled to get. If he is entitled to the records, yes, give them, and give them now. -- nm* - ty97 Feb 5, 05:35
- More important than "momentum", it'd give him, at best, 1 more delegate? In a race where he needs 2300+ -- nm - TWuG Feb 5, 05:25 2
  - Yeah, that's why I don't understand the focus on IA. - ty97 Feb 5, 05:28 1
    - Last night in the debate he said he thinks the results should be audited to make sure the system works correctly, but that the results aren't really - pmb Feb 5, 05:47
