So... I dont want to come across like an Alex Jones tinfoil hat type of guy, but - if you're rooting for Biden and/or against Sanders, wouldnt it be awfully convenient if the final results werent coming out on Tuesday morning or noon and instead became delayed until shortly before the SOTU speech tonight, so that they get overshadowed immediately?

in this podcast:
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/politics-podcast-what-to-expect-from-the-iowa-caucuses/

polling expert Nate Silver from 538 rails into the Des Moines Register/CNN/Seltzer & Co people for cancelling their final Iowa poll over the reported issues, saying that it seems like a drastic overreaction to him, and like the pollster gave in to pressure from the client or the public -which is basically the same thing I was saying all along.

also, the preliminary and uncomplete results we saw from Iowa yesterday seem to be in line with the results from this unpublished poll, with Sanders winning, Buttigieg doing really well and Biden doing very poorly.

CNN helped contribute to this when Wolf Blitzer kept yapping to an Iowa precinct chair who was on the phone with the state party to ask about election results, and she hung up when the chair guy didnt answer to her because had to keep telling Wolf to stfu so he could talk to her

CNN headline last night when i checked for results: "Rush Limbaugh says he has lung cancer".

like am i supposed to read that and not believe Rush? why not "Rush Limbaugh announces he has lung cancer" or "Rush Limbaugh announces battle with lung cancer" or the treatment they'd give any leftist commentator "Heartbreaking news, media stalwart of decades Rush Limbaugh announces tragic battle with cancer."

Anything less than "steaming pile of feces and human organs has developed cancerous growth" is too generous.

ive never understood the lefts need to elevate characters like Rush. he's not saying anything you wont hear over coffee at our trap/skeet club when the 60+ year old white dudes all get to chirping.

then again, pretending a large part of the US doesnt exist, or are deplorable, (and losing elections with halfcocked feelgood strategies) is about all the modern left is capable of.
