Today the republican candidates are back out on the Actual Campaign trail after taking their message to the airwaves last night. It was an evening of dueling republican events on the Cable Networks last night. The main event was the Republican Debate at the iowa events center. At the same time donald trump held his own event at drake university. Raising money for veterans charities. Trump may not have been at the debate. But he wasnt forgotten by his fellow republicans. 4355 im a maniac and everyone on this stage is stupid, fat, and ugly. And ben, youre a terrible surgeon. Now that weve gotten the donald trump portion out of the way. 100108 i kind of miss donald trump. He was a little teddy bear to me. We always had such a loving relationship in these debates and in between and the tweets. I kind of miss him. I wish he was here. This morning trump took his campaign to New Hampshire and returned fire. 133151 and cruz is in second place, he got really pummeled wasnt there. He got pummeled. Wow. And you know they didnt even mention that he was born in canada right . You know. When youre born in canada youre not supposed to be running for president of the united states. Prime minister of canada, no problem. Speaking of his own event at drake university, trump says he raised six Million Dollars for veterans charities. A big chunk of that is going to the group Puppy Jake Foundation that trains companion dogs. Trump then told the New Hampshire crowd that he could give up campaigning right now and still win the republican nomination. But hell stay on the campaign trail anyway. We have the most loyal people and the polls have said that. In fact, you ever notice when they say whos going to stick no matter what, trump 69 percent, other guys like 9 percent. So when they go, i mean i have people, these are my people. And by the way, the 69, and then whos probably going to stick, im into the nineties ok. In other words, i dont even think i have to campaign anymore. Why am i even campaign. I could leave here right now, theyre going to vote for me. Trump will return to iowa tomorrow and remain here through caucus night. Florida senator marco rubio began his day in burlington in eastern iowa. Rubio made his final pitch. Saying no matter where you stand on the issues you should stand with him because he is the only republican who can win next november. 1139 today im here, three for me on monday night. Number one because i will unite this party. We have our differences, but we cannot win unless we are left running that, at the end of this nomination process, can unite this party. We cannot win if were divided and the sooner we can unite at the end of this contest, the better off were going to be in terms of winning. Rubio says Hillary Clinton and republican nominee. Senator rand paul started his day today in knoxville. He is wrapping up his campaign here by warning iowans what giving donald trump their vote could really mean. I think people are frustrated with washington and so am i and in their frustration theyre looking for an easy way out and right now donald trump is the easy way out, give him the power and he will fix things but there is also a long standing tradition in our country going all the way back to our Founding Fathers that worries about one person getting too much power, so i worry about a donald trump accumulating so much power that it would be used to take away our freedoms, im a big believer that the constitution was put in place to keep in check power, i think its a foreign tradition to donald trump but should be very important to iowa voters because anytime you let power get carried away, theres always the chance well lose our freedoms in the process. Paul says his caucus hopes could depend on him winning over inspiring them to caucus for the first time. New jersey governor chris ride his strong debate performance into the Iowa Caucuses monday. 9 13 15 i felt really good felt good most the questions we were asked. And what drives me crazy about those things is that people get up on stage, they dont like the question they were asked and they think that youre really not listening and think youre at home distracted by the potato chips, or a phone call, and they dont realize that you listen, the people in iowa listen. 01 27 christie hosted a sendoff rally at his Campaign Headquarters in johnston this morning. He says hell do better in the Iowa Caucuses than people think because of his campaign efforts. Christie says between today and corner of the state. 9 16 12 so when i sit in the chair of the oval office for the first time in january 2017, i wont spin around in the chair and say, gee wiz isnt it good im president . it will feel familiar, it will feel like the one im in right now. Just a little bigger, and a little more Decision Making process. 01 20 christie is participating in the state today. Fellow republican challenger ben carson also thinks he had strong debate performance. Today he sat down with our dave price to explain his comments on controlling vladimir putin. 28183225 talk about the debate experience. Even though i didnt have very much time to speak. One of things that disturbs me the most is that the current generation is the first one expected to do worse than their parents. Easier one of the comments you made last night. You said putin is a one horse country. By keeping oil prices low it keeps his expansion. People in texas are worried. American ingenuity thats the answer to we need to be looking for alternative energy sources. Imagine what would would happen to funding for terrorism. Should we intentionally hold down oil prices to starve out putin . That would put a great deal of pressure on putin. Basically limiting a great deal of his influence. Doing that in a very proactive way. Like the rest of the republican field, sanders is promising to support is much stronger on caucus day than the polls are showing right now. Hillary clinton has three days to ensure she doesnt let another late it will be a Family Affair in iowa through monday night for the clintons as she, former president bill clinton and their daughter Chelsea Campaign together and separately.

Bernie sanders is looking to because this years barack obama on monday night. This morning sanders reminded a crowd in Mount Pleasant how far the characterizations of his campaign and himself have come in a few months. And how close his supporters are to ensuring a victory here. One of the criticism being thrown at me is Bernie Sanders nice guy, combs his hair very well, great dresser, Hillary Clinton is the only person who can beat right wing republicans. Edit to based on Available Evidence today we are the stronger candidate. But something more important is out there. And it is that i believe the excitement and the interest for a large voter turnout. That turnout will be important for sanders. He is counting on Younger Voters who typically dont show up to caucus in droves.

Where women receive equal pay and a living wage is paid to all. There is time for rest and grandchildren. A nation that defends our people and our values, but no longer carries so much of that burden alone. I know we can create that america if we listen to our hearts.
