**** Here are the results from the Iowa GOP straw poll ****

1. Romney: 4516 (31.5) Not overwhelming but enough.
2. Huckabee: 2587 (18.1) Big Mo for Huckabee
3. Brownback: 2192 (15.3) Big disappointment.
4. Tancredo: 1961 (13.7) Anti-immigrant yahoos have limited appeal.
5. Paul: 1305 (9.1) Barely OK. Strong, loud, and few supporters.
6. T. Thompson: 1039 (7.3) Should be out of the race.
7. F. Thompson: 203 (1.4) Did not campaign
8. Giuliani: 183 (1.3) "
9. Hunter: 174 (1.2) " Sorry, seemed like he didn't campaign.
10. McCain: 101 (1) "
11. Cox: 41 (.1) " Another that should bite the bullet.
