1. I'm glad to see that BS is finally understanding what is wrong with caucuses

after only 30 years in politics...of course he had no issue until it didn't work out for him

[HarlanPepper]

2. Uh oh

Northern England?

[Cha]

3. Where? Pete has a strong Win in Iowa.

[Scurrilous]

5. Northern England ruled differently.

Strong victory win for Bernie. Inviolable under Saint Albans City law.

[Cha]

6. lol.. too bad.. I'm not interested in

Northern England right now.

[R B Garr]

4. Oh my, he looks very frail and tired there.

I hope he's okay. "Northern England". I can't imagine if another candidate said this.

[lapucelle]

7. Is 't there a region in VT called Northeast Kingdom?

Maybe he got confused.

[Scurrilous]

8. I think he was going for 'New England.'

[phleshdef]

9. Yea, it was just a slip of the tongue.

We can criticize Bernie without making a big deal over nothing.

[Scurrilous]

11. I thought the self awarding victory for participation was funnier.

Bernie fans have relentlessly mocked Hillary for daring to point out she had more votes than Trump. Now this. He 'wins' because more of his followers showed up to caucus id est participation trophy.

10. "Northern New England" is what others are reporting he actually said.

[Scurrilous]

12. Under the 'facts is fat' rule, first reported interpretation stands when deemed funny.

This lasted a couple of days..

"For the record, I totally buy that Biden was trying to say "Look, facts." But like the Swalwell fart that may-or-may-not have occurred, life is more fun if Biden said "Look, fat."

32. rofl! Brilliant!

[krissey]

15. lol.

[Cha]

13. KICK

[George II]

14. Did he really say "Northern England"? Anywhere near where the KC Chiefs play in Kansas?

[Scurrilous]

19. Inner map glitch.

He'll be fine as long as you don't let him wander.

[NurseJackie]

16. Love the golf (tennis?) trophy!!

[Scurrilous]

17. Tennis. LOL It's a classic.

And very apt for this occasion.

18. Twit on Twitter DISPROVED by Newsweek transcript. Don't believe everything you read.

Newsweek’s direct quote: “we here in Northern New England”

It's now very strong victory win. First he said very strong victory. Then he said win. I put them together for emphasis. I'll be using this throughout the primaries to note Bernie's victories. Fake, real, stolen, self awarded,actual, actual and regular moral, invisible, technical, galactic, and interdimensional.

[Cha]

28. lol @ interdimensional..

33. I nailed 'moral.'

"...terms of moral ACTUAL democracy, Bernie won.'

[Cha]

34. lol.. no, really?! I'm gonna go with Pete!

[Scurrilous]

35. Pete won, there's no doubting that. But crazy people say different.

I kind of knew we were dealing with alternate reality. Fake poll results, opposite, etc. And I knew the alternate reality didn't allow math and facts to impinge on the beliefs. But this is totally new. Declare victory regardless and everyone believe. And it comes from the top. Bernie said he won. LOL

[Cha]

36. oh yeah

[Cha]

21. nah.. Iowa just reported to 100%..Pete up 1.5 delegates

26. Awkward since Pete Won.. not even a tie..

There's only one winner and it's been called for Pete!

[Scurrilous]

29. Tell them that. They have won and no one can tell them different. LOL

[Cha]

31. I'll tell them that..

Sanders lost to the Mayor of South Bend, Indiana

Pete Buttegeig declared winner in Iowa.
