Tonight is a victory for the grassroots. Tonight is a victory for courageous conservatives across iowa and all across this great nation. And the next president of the United States will not be chosen by the media, will not be chosen by the lobbyists, will not be chosen by the washington establishment. But will be chosen by the most incredible, powerful force, with all so forth resides in our nation by we the people, the american people. Joining us now with reaction from the washington times, charles hurt, Fox News Contributor kerstin powers, and fox news legal analyst Peter Johnson jr. Welcome you all. What a night. So many different story lines. One, the media, the polls wrong again. Just like in 2000, 2004, 2008. Two, if you add up trump and cruz and carson, you have got over 60 of republicans and antiestablishment night. An insurgency year this is turning into. And three, hillary the big loser of the night. Peter johnson jr. . Yeah, i think youre hitting a lot of the points here. We
Frontrunner donald trump has three events today while hess closest rival ted cruz continues his bus tour. You see them dotting the map there. Hillary clinton is holding three events ending the day at a rally with her husband and daughter, and Bernie Sanders has five appearances, including a concert with some wellsan antonio rock bands there in iowa. We will bring you many of these events as it happens live this afternoon. My colleague john berman is already there in des moines. He is getting ready just two days away. Everyone is kind of you know, they have their hands together, because its cold and they cant wait for this day to happen. Reporter i have to say fredricka, you can feel the energy and the urgency here. These candidates, they have almost no time left to make their case, using every second they can to make that case. We have correspondents covering all the campaigns today. Sunlen ser fathi, manu raji covering marco rubio and jeff zell anyone chasing the Clinton Campaign. I w
It was excellent. But im standing there shaking hands with club members. Nice people. Great people. Probably some here today. Anybody here . Is anybody here from that club that was very nice . Anybody here . Because i took so many pictures that day. Dy that. I did it as a favor. And other things. He asked me, would i come up and make a speech on behalf of james foley . Ill do that any time. I think that was good. And i made a big contribution, a very big contribution to james foley. And i think thats fine. And i think thats fine. But i came up, i made a speech. I did a lot of things. So, i have millions and millions of followers, especially when you add facebook. Its like 5. 6 million for twitter, over 5 million for facebook, instagram its like 11, 12 million people. And i said, what is it . He said, would you do me a favor . This is a few weeks ago. Chris christie did not make the main stage. I would like you to do me a favor and tweet, and tweet that Chris Christie should be on the m
Let me go to Howie Jackson on i should be howie, sure. What do you think about tonights debate. What explains the behavior. Cruz was the most consistent taking shot after shot at barack obama. Irrespective of the topic. Going for the proisrael crowd. It makes sense. Most of what he did was going after the tea party people. He was working their hard right rail of the race.

He nailed it when he talked about it was serious, it was substantive for the most part. Even donald trump himself acknowledged how civil the evening was. You didnt see at all what you saw last week which were insults right off the bat for the first 90 minutes, it
He is now insulting me every day. Ted cannot get along with anybody. Hes a nasty person. Im happy to have a conversation about how donalds and my records differ. He was born in canada. Meaningful differences. Substantive differences. I could stand in the middle of 5th avenue and shoot somebody and i wouldnt lose any voters. Okay . You know thats not what a president does, right . Youre not running for president of hunger games. You know i was joking. Of course i was joking. He brought out sarah palin. In iowa. You saw that. I wanted to take a break from my fulltime career of writing things on facebook. I hope nobodys allergic to nuts because we got a big one here. Shes two corinthians short of a bible. Two corinthians, right . Two corinthians. Two corinthians walk into a bar. Ah, yes. Ricardo montalban. Genuine corinthian leather. Of course. Why not the best . Turns out that trumps secret weapon all along has been ted cruz. After his disastrously bad performance as a president ial cand
