Chris Christie Knows He Won’t Win Iowa Tonight

WHAT’S NEXT: Christie is scheduled to hold three events Monday morning but will leave the state for New Hampshire before Iowans cast their caucus ballots Monday evening.

If Republicans nominate Rubio, they would have an excellent chance to broaden their party’s appeal with moderates, millennials and Latinos, according to the FiveThirtyEight blog, which found that surveys by NBC News and The Wall Street Journal found an electability edge for Rubio over Trump and Cruz when it comes to the November general. Bush, who once thought he could win in Iowa, now begins to face the disagreeable reality that barring a great outcome in New Hampshire, he has no viable path to the nomination.

But most of the attention will be focused on two large video screens that will show results from the Iowa caucuses.

“What they’ll say you’re a thinking, breathing human being”. The attacks killed four Americans, including the US ambassador to Libya, and quickly became a political rallying cry for Republicans. “Given your record in Wisconsin, why should voters believe you?”

“We have more and more volunteers coming out”, O’Brien said.

“Gov. John Kasich of OH, though a distinct underdog, is the only plausible choice for Republicans exhausted of the extremism and inexperience on display in this race”.

Tracie Perez of Scranton, Iowa, says she has been a Cruz fan since he ran for the Senate in 2012. He’s more or less along with U.S. Sen. “The Republican party has been my vehicle, but has never been my master”. Kasich made sure it did. At one point, a woman who had driven to the event from Nebraska told him she was anxious about the state of the GOP campaign.

Donald Trump, though, looms as the candidate who exacted the most long-term damage.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush stayed in Iowa over the weekend but packed it in Monday afternoon and headed to the more establishment-supportive state for a town-hall meeting in Manchester. Rand Paul were dropped from the sixth prime-time debate on January 14.

Cruz New Hampshire campaign co-chairman Bill O’Brien, a former New Hampshire House speaker, said, “I’m encouraged by the win but I’m also encouraged because the combined vote of Cruz and Trump shows there is a good, strong conservative vote out there that is looking for a change”.

Steve Richardson, 77, of Bedford, is a registered Republican and is considering the more conservative Cruz, though he was leaning towards Kasich and was sitting in the front row in Amherst.

For Christie, Bush and Kasich, people giving $200 or less were barely a blip in their fundraising totals. Ohio’s recovery mirrored national trends. Wisconsin reached that goal earlier this year, as Walker noted in response to Wallace’s question. But hopefully, we’ll be back in August (campaigning for the general election).

Kasich denied that the state waited to tell residents about the issue. He was there to campaign for Republican Gov. Terry Branstad.

“What we’ve seen is some Washington, D.C. gymnastics”.

He adds that Russian Federation is reported to have conducted carpet bombing in Syria.

“It would make her path a lot easier”, Redlawsk said.

It’s the difference between using a corked baseball bat and moving the ball park’s fence in.

He’s bragging about his support from the group also pursued by rival Ted Cruz just hours before the leadoff Iowa caucuses. “It doesn’t mean the other people on the team don’t understand their role”.

That’s an example why underestimating Kasic is a mistake.

Uncertainties are mounting as candidates fail to sway the state’s many fence-sitters one way or the other, despite months of outreach by the various campaigns.

Speaking to NBC’s Today on Monday, billionaire Donald Trump declined to predict the outcome of the caucuses, noting that fellow Republican Sen. He was re-elected in 2014 with a 31-point-margin, taking 86 of Ohio’s 88 counties. “The only place where I am free of the tyranny of the young is right here”.
