Yea like the old Chinese curse 'may you live in interesting times'

Trump looks like & acts like a movie President, lets hope its not like Escape from New York or similar.

People wrote off Ronald Reagan as a B movie actor but he proved to be quite a good president.

It seems that even the US voters in Iowa have some common sense when it comes to the republican candidate :D

Good result. Rubio did better than expected so he is now favorite to win the nomination and he is the best chance the Republicans have of winning.

I think the bigger suprise of the night was Bernie Sanders. He was tied with Hilary which, given his position as a democratic socialist, is possibly unexpected?

The democratic run-in could be as interesting as the GOP one ..

Yes it's a huge surprise, I think everyone expected him to be the "Ron Paul" candidate. A lot of noisy supporters who will be too stoned to go to vote.

My take:
Even if Clinton wins the nomination this isn't a good sign as it speaks to her general unpopularity.

Putin has been nominated for a prize before. Anyone can be nominated.

I guess he means the level of support for the "GOP" favoured candidate Rubio?

Close, have corrected it for you.
