Just got to the Ames Straw Poll after many mishaps...
The first thing a visitor notices: the Ron Paul presence. I predicted he'd come in 7th in the poll. But the first thing you see when you get here is countless Ron Paul signs and Ron Paul workers. There' a giant Ron Paul sign right out front. Mitt Romney's got nothing on this guy...
Now, I stand by my prediction — heck, I stand by all of them until the vote comes down. I think most of these folks are from out-of-state, and thus can't vote. But I'll report back when I've had some time to walk around.
