Hillary is going to win the Iowa Caucus - Do you know day Jan 3rd is? It's the Orange Bowl

[Herman Munster]

The boys are not going to go out in the cold freezing temperatures when the big game is on TV? But I'm sure the girls will and who will the girls vote for?

Even if the game just depresses male turnout by 10%, it's a huge thing for Hillary.

1. gee that isn't sexist

not at all. Incidently, the Orange Bowl would still be on when the caucus was over.

[Ellen Forradalom]

--double post.

A little too quick on the click.

[Ellen Forradalom]

2. Care to back up those assertions with evidence?

[mtnsnake]

3. If Hillary wins anything it's because she's the Goddess of Peace, not because of the Orange Bowl

[robinlynne]

6. Are you joking? She is the most pro-war Dem candidate.

[Skip Intro]

4. an aspect I hadn't thought of

I think Hillary's going to win the nom. I don't see that not happening. But Iowa - ?


I think she'll win there too. And your post makes as good a prediction as any I've seen.

[johncoby2]

5. Boy is that a stupid post or what?

[Herman Munster]

10. elections are won or lost

based on whether the sun shines or it rains that day. It's all about turnout.

[ncabot22]

7. Don't think so

They'll be in the kitchen, where they belong, making sandwiches for the boys and their friends while the big game is on! :sarcasm:

[Rowdyboy]

8. I'll bet the game will be on in most of those Iowa farmhouses....

Democrats can think about two things at once. Republicans are a different matter. God knows, they may nominate Nebraska for president....

[cuke]

9. Depends on the demographics - caucus goers vs, F'ball fanatics

If there's an overlap, that's good for her. If it's a large overlap, even better. I don't see how it could be bad for her

[slick8790]

37. Well I don't think you can necessarily say it's good for her.

What about female football fans? Or male non-football fans? I don't think it'll be good or bad for her, mostly a wash.

[cuke]

42. I said nothing about gender

I spoke of demographics in general because I do not know what they are for either football or caucuses.

[slick8790]

44. My mistake.

Must have read it wrong.

[zulchzulu]

11. Don't count on it...

But hey, if you're feeling overconfident, by all means, please tell us it's "inevitable"...

:rofl:

[Awsi Dooger]

12. The Orange Bowl is a secondary game this year

The national championship game will be played in the Sugar Bowl on January 7.

Next season the Orange Bowl will host the title game. At the time, our nominee will be the president-elect.

[JVS]

13. You mean the wives won't be busy making the guys sandwiches and fetching beers?

:sarcasm:

[sniffa]

16. ...

:rofl:

these peopLe kiLL me.

[Debi]

19. Well, at our house that's the way it is...

:rofl:

Of course I won't be able to caucus until my over-lord husband tells me who I'm supporting :eyes:

[Basileus Basileon]

14. But on Jan 3, women won't be able to go out, because

they'll all be too embarrassed of their post-holiday weight gain! They won't be able to step out until they lose at least five pounds.

:sarcasm:

[Capn Sunshine]

15. How are they going to get there in bare feet?

Won't they be doing wash, tending to the kids, baking cookies and making sandwiches?

[youthere]

17. I don't know any "girls" that will be caucusing. I do, however, know plenty of women...

that plan to caucus against Senator Clinton.

[Debi]

27. Sexist....

:eyes:

[youthere]

28. notice that the OP hasn't responded to anyone on this thread.....PUFF PIECE.

[Debi]

30. More like 'stir up the s*&% storm' piece

I wonder if that's how all Hillary Clinton supporters think of us Iowans? :shrug:

[Debi]

18. Are Iowans just a bunch of hicks?

We know how to record football games out here (hell, we have electricty and running water here :thumbsup:)

AND not everyone in Iowa is a football fan :eyes:

Thanks for assuming that a football game will keep Iowans from attending our presidential preference process. :hi:

[gorekerrydreamticket]

20. Nominate for most IQ-lowering post of the day.....n/m

[IA_Seth]

21. My solemn oath...

I hearby swear that I, as an Iowan male obviously obsessed more with football than the democratic process, will delay my football watching and additional beer drinkin until AFTER we, as Iowans, impose our will and choice on the rest of our nation's Democrats.

I'll also be sure to keep my womenfolk at home, barefoot and in the kitchen with the kids, (where they belong) while the rest of the men and I decide what is best for them!

----

Seriously, where do people come up with this? In my experience, the people who are willing to attend a caucus are not the same people who cancel plans for a (any) football game.

Especially since Iowa will be nowhere NEAR a bowl appearance!

[flpoljunkie]

22. IA_Seth, is it the case that caucuses begin at 6PM and last about two hours in your experience?

I believe that is what I have read.

[Debi]

25. Seth - is there a way I can copy and forward this post

to your womenfolk? I'm sure she'd LOVE to read it :evilgrin:

[IA_Seth]

31. Lol,

Like any good Iowa womun, she only hears what I reads TO her.. she don't be doin no gawl-durned readin herself! What kind a' man you think I am?

---

DISCLAIMER: Ok honey, if you are reading this I was ONLY kidding. I swear. Don't hurt me. I promise I'll do the dishes when I get home and don't forget to make that appointment at the day-spa! Oh, did you want me to take the kids tonight while you relax and have some you-time?

----


ha ha ha..I kill me.

[Debi]

32. {Debi checking her calendar for next state-wide gathering of Democrats}

Just so she and Seth's 'womun' can have some private chat time....;)

[Bluzmann57]

23. Well, if we were to leave in the hands of our Iowa ladies

then the process would be in very good hands indeed. Iowa women are the best. And as far as us watching football, usually if one of our home state schools isn't involved, we don't particularly care. I'm tired of all this Iowa bashing. Once upon a time, I invited all you backwoods hillbillies who hate our great state to come and visit. Cancel that. Stay away and keep up your hate fest. Fucking sexist so and so.

[Debi]

26. Bluzmann you are a gem

:hug:

Looks like we Iowans got to stick together, huh?

[Counciltucky]

39. The odd thing I've noticed ...

... is that more MEN are supportive of Hillary than WOMEN. The women I've met are more likely to support Edwards or Obama. I really haven't noticed much of a "Hillary's a woman; I'm a woman; ergo I'll support Hillary" sentiment from talking to fellow Iowa voters.

btw, there are quite a few female football fans.

[Blue Gardener]

41. Thanks Bluzmann

For sticking up for the women of Iowa!

[FlaxieB]

24. She will not win. Bull shit post.

[youthere]

29. Gee..I don't know if I'll be able to caucus...I'll be too busy fightin waxy yellow buildup.

and fetching my husband beers allday while he watches the game.
Yikes. Dumbest.Post.Evah.

[Debi]

33. !

:spray:

You have floors at yer house????? I just brush the dirt and water it down to keep the dust to a minimum :hi:

[JTFrog]

34. Since you're grasping....

Here's some free straws for you!!!



:eyes:

Nothing like using your candidate's gender when it suits you and slamming others for it when it suits you.

[bunnies]

35. Keepers of the vaginas unite!

You've got to be kidding me. :eyes:

[Debi]

43. A belated welcome to DU bunnies!

:hi:

'keepers of the vaginas unite' :rofl:

You should make that your sig line!

[progressoid]

36. Are you kidding? We just caucus during halftime.

Duh.

[Perky]

38. You vould not be more wrong....sorry

You are treating a caucus like its a primary... there are very different social dynamics at play.

[Imagevision]

40. Neocons don't care about Dem or Repug, they simply need to have either in their back pocket, enter

Hillary...
