Fox news link to quell some of the QQs. At 1:00 into the video they show the results with Romney in first w\ 29,944 votes and Santorum in 2nd w\ 29,926 and Ron Paul in 3rd with 26,163.

How many votes are they talking about that were missing, and did they find them?

I don't know for sure yet, but Santorum is going to drop like a fly. I'm inclined to believe that he cheated however, for obvious reasons.

He campaigned heavily in the state, having visited EVERY one of the counties in the state. He held town halls in all of them, speaking to the public each time.

I would have been surprised if he did not do well. He made the people feel like they mattered to him, and people like that.

He was one of the most corrupt members of Congress. He supported No Child Left Behind, Medicare Part D, Bush's other social programs, and Arlen Specter, too.

Here's some info:

Hope that helps:)

None of that is corruption.

I never said it was corruption. Should I say why he's corrupt?

The school thing is stupid, since PA School Taxes are paid for via property taxes. He pays his property tax, so he pais school tax. If he has kids of school age (which he does, or did at the time), then he can send them to school just like everyone else. We continue to pay these school taxes even if we have no children in school.

They then go on to say he is taking bribes...but then couch it in "if...then it might be..."

I am not a big Santorum fan, but what they posted seems silly.

I believe he took tax payer's money illegally to pay for his kids' education and he lived in VA even though he won because he criticized his first opponent for the same thing.
His situation for living was no different than any other congressional representative.

And even congress and White House staffers play to the same tune.

Their job requires them to have a second residence.

There is only one that they can declare for a home of residence.


Dangerous to regurgitate statements without understanding what they are about.

These dirt diggers are exactly that; they do not look at the actual facts; just what they think is dirt and twist it for their audience

Silly me, I thought the thread title was "Did they find the missing Iowa Caucus votes?"

When last I checked on Yahoo, only 99.55&#37; of the votes are in.

Where are the missing 0.45% of the votes?

Somewhat important since Romney leads Santorum by only 8 votes.

Say why do they call it a caucus?

Is it because the outcome leaves almost everyone cussing?

Just checked Yahoo news again, and they finally list 100&#37; of the votes are in.

As the Romney vote margin still remains 8.

It was really never an issue.
The poll observers from both parties agreed on the tally for the missing votes.

How about cheating in Iowa. Where is that coming from?
Did you read the OP of the link I posted?

I'm not saying I know that he cheated, but it certainly can't be ruled out.

The link is speculation because they do not understand how the caucus operates and/or have a bone to pick

Santorum put effort into Iowa. He visited every country to meet up with people; that shows interest.

I would like someone like you to explain how one is going to cheat at the caucus tallies?

Or are you just content with regurgitating everything that you read?
