Sanders leads Clinton in Iowa, Trump surges: polls

Good on Sanders. He's really the only candidate who isn't controlled by big money, or who doesn't demonize minority groups in order to woo bigots. He might not look the part, but his vision for a just and responsible society is refreshing. Most Americans would agree with his ideas were they to actually hear them. I hope he continues to gain support.

Second above poster. Go Sanders go. The popularity of Trump shows that the Republican Party is a hotbed of right wing crazies.

Who will prevail? Honesty or the Wicked Witch of the West??????

Stay tuned.

Democratic race looks to be a tough contest. I'm just glad Bush and the other bleating cloned sheep Repubs are being thoroughly put in their place by the outsider candidates

A CNN/ORC poll finds Trump surging to 32 percent support nationally, becoming the first in the broad Republican field to gain to top 30 percent in the race.

Will Republican pundits finally embrace Donald, or will they continue to insist that their leading candidate is a Democrat?

Liberal U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders has taken a slim lead over Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton in Iowa

Awesome. A lot of people are going to learn about Bernie Sanders.

Hilary in damage control mode. Wide margin she had enjoyed just evaporated like a mirage.

Can you imagine a TRUMP~era in the position of US history?

Good news about Sanders. As a Liberal Democrat, allow me to say that I think both Sanders and Clinton will make a fine President. I prefer Sanders domestic politics to Clinton's, but Clinton's foreign policy to Sanders.

[Yes, even though she voted for the AOF for Iraq -- cause Sanders is too isolationist for my taste.]

It's really so strange. I thought my fellow americans were smart! It's very obvious to me now that many are so wrapped up into party politics and naiveté. It's like choosing Hitler Lite.

Rick Perry just called it quits. Wish DT (the buffoon) would do the same !
