Caucus post

[missmurchison]

Well, our caucus was boring. There were more people than I expected, and I wound up working to sign people in and register a handful of new voters. I have been drafted to attend the county convention, but may pass that job off to an alternate. Obama called in live, but I was busy sorting the sign in forms and just listened from outside the door

I fell asleep when I got home and woke up to Santorum babbling about his wife and God and stuff.

Obama is MUSSOLINI!

Well, your theory that Bachmann was only in Iowa to sell books seems to have been validated. So, yay?

[missmurchison]

Did you see Gingrich? His ego, which is bigger than Iowa, has been damaged, and he's going to attack Romney and Paul out of nothing but spite. And Perry and Bachmann's people will line up behind Santorum for the short term. It's going to be a nasty few months.

I heard about Gingrich but didn't see him. What did he say?

[missmurchison]

As someone described it on a morning talk show, he was like something from "Apocalypse Now," climbing out of the jungle with a knife clenched in his teeth. Santorum is a nice boy, but Paul and Romney are evil bastards who dared to say bad things about the Newt, and they must DIE.

I'm paraphrasing, but it was pretty clear.

He's so cuddly.
