Iowa Caucus Leftovers & Bachmann Pulls Out

First off, 8 votes separated Romney from Santorum whereas Ron Paul finished 3rd at 21%.

The biggest news to come out of this, is Michele Bachmann's stunning decision to cease operations on her campaign for President. This comes as a result of low numbers from Bachmann in the Iowa Caucuses.


The final numbers were as this...

Romney 24.6% (8 vote difference)
Santorum 24.5%
R. Paul 21.4%
Gingrich 13.3%
Perry 10.3%

And then...

Bachmann 5%

And then...

Huntsman 0.6%. Wow.

Also former Louisiana Governor Buddy Roemer (was Louisiana Governor from 1984 until 1988) and former Presidential candidate Herman Cain got votes as well in the Iowa caucus. Interesting.

During Bachmann's speech, she talked about how she and Marcus both shopped for "doggie sunglasses"! Check out Marcus' reaction!




I never buy stuff like that for my dog, unless I want to dress her up for a certain occasion. Brilliant idea though.

On to New Hampshire!
