Unfortunately, I'll be at work until 9:00 CT, but I will be following the results on CNN.com and the Forum in between calls.  I will be home a bit before 9:30 and will flip on to Anderson Cooper on CNN.

So when do the results come in? 8pm et?

Both Colorado and Minnesota caucus like Iowa and both at 7:00 pm local time, (8 pm ET for MN and 9 pm ET for CO).

I generally have the Forum Results page, CNN.com, and Politico.com.  I also have a separate page up for the rest of the forum in case I want to post elsewhere and don't feel like backing out of the results thread.

Hm, still early to predict MO but Santorum in 2nd place is surprising.

Not any more, Romney's now in a distant second.

One hour into Minnesota and Missouri and we only have 1%.  Colorado is about to begin.  I might be able to get home in 85-90 minutes and not miss much. Smiley

Seems like Gingrich will not do well tonight. These events are not that important as far as delegates go, but three defeats for Gingrich remind me of baseball

That would be 5 defeats in a row.  Ouch...

Fig Newt Grinch needs to drop out if he doesnt make any of these states.

He needs to, but he won't.  He'll stay in through Super Tuesday, and possibly later.  He's got an eye on the South and on Ohio.

It would be nice if the results got in a little faster. It would be interesting to see if Santorum can keep his strong lead.

Noooo, they can stay this slow until I get home at 9:25 (70 minutes from now).

Bizarre result from lafayette missouri, Mitt 93%, uncommitted 7%.

Do one of the Romneys live there or something or is that an aberration?

EDIT:  Never mind, I thought it had to be erroneous.

In Minnesota it could actually turn out to be a tight race between Romney and Gingrich...




...for third place Smiley

Gingrich beating Romney, even for 3rd place will be considered by the Gingrich campaign as a huge victory.

Missouri has been called for Rick Santorum.

I'm home, folks and I'm glad to see neither Minnesota or Colorado called.  I'm buckling up for a great night. Smiley

Hopefully, Mittens can pull off a narrow Colorado win.  We've got to have some sense of normalcy, can't we.

Lesson learned from tonight regardless of outcome in Colorado: We're just getting started, folks. Smiley

He's saying all the right things but he's not being particularly articulate.

He sounds tired to me.

He has visited Colorado, Missouri, and Minnesota more than all of the other candidates combined.

That's true.  Is he going to Maine at all in the last few days or is he going back home to rest for a little bit before taking on Arizona, Michigan, and Super Tuesday states?

I admire these candidates, whether I support them or not, for traveling across the country for two straight years or more, spending very little time at home with their families, standing up for what they believe.  If I tried to do that, I would have passed out after the 2nd week.

Ha, I just got a tweet from CNN saying that a Romney campaign source confirmed he called Santorum to congratulate but did not connect.  He left a message.

That was a "You knocked me down, but you did not knock me out" speech by Governor Romney.

I'm getting reports of huge Santorum wins in El Paso.

Colorado Springs is crawling with evangelicals, right?  Makes sense.
Colorado Springs is the bible thumping belt of Colorado.

James Dobson's Focus on the Family, a conservative family-oriented Christian organization, is headquartered in Colorado Springs, so it makes sense.

Speaking of which, Bushie, when are you going to announce that you've become a Santorum supporter?  The suspense is killing us!

Not anytime soon, I can tell you that.
