Iowa Caucus 2012 Live Blog
EmailAt the Iowa caucuses tonight, the first Republican voters are choosing who they want to face President Obama in 2012. While they assign no delegates for the nominating convention, the caucuses are the first official event in the 2012 season.
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is the national frontrunner but is less popular in Iowa, where the GOP is more dominated by social conservatives and evangelicals. Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, Texas Gov. Rick Perry, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Rep. Michele Bachmann are vying to be his chief challenger. And the dark horse is Rep. Ron Paul, with his libertarian leanings, who is on his third run for the White House but has created a strong web of support in Iowa.
And without further ado, here is our live blog of the 2012 Iowa Caucus:

Why would you interrupt a NEW episode of Last Man Standing just to let everyone know about covering the Iowa Caucus? That is very inconsiderate of a television station. Shouldn’t you be wanting the public to watch the shows you fund? The only thing you should broadcast is THE RESULTS!!!! No one cares about it just starting or just getting underway. They only want to know about the results. You should NEVER interrupt a show just to tell something that NO ONE CARES ABOUT!!!!

Iowa will be glad to see the little perfumed poodles of the press leaving their state. Problem is, they will be moving to someone else’s very soon.

Don’t people read? Time to take out the trash!
The Center For Responsibility And Ethics In Washington released its second annual survey of the twenty most corrupt members of Congress, aptly named “Beyond DeLay: The 20 Most Corrupt Members of Congress (and five to watch).”
CREW inventoried the “transgressions” of each member of Congress under the microscope of federal law and congressional rules.
Some highlights:
-The three most corrupt Senate members are the infamous Conrad Burns (R-MT), Bill Frist (R-TN), and Rick Santorum (R-PA)
Ron Paul 2012 !!

No delegates are awarded to the winner so, who cares. Iowa caucus has become meaningless.

I have discovered that expenses for internet degree professionals tend to be an incredible value. For instance a full College Degree in Communication from The University of Phoenix Online consists of 60 credits at $515/credit or $30,900. Also American Intercontinental University Online comes with a Bachelors of Business Administration with a entire program element of 180 units and a price of $30,560. Online learning has made taking your certification far less difficult because you can certainly earn your degree from the comfort of your home and when you finish from work. Thanks for all the tips I’ve learned through the website.
