From USA Today:
• Third-place finisher Sam Brownback says he spent about $325,000 to win his 2,192 votes. That's $148.27 for each vote. • Second-place finisher Mike Huckabee spent about $150,000 and received 2,587 votes. That's $57.98 per vote.• Winner Mitt Romney has not said how much he spent. The reporting in this Washington Post article suggests at least $2 million and possibly more than twice that much. Assuming $2 million for 4,516 votes, that's $442.87 per vote. But it could top $1,000.
Several reports this morning suggest the real "win" went to Huckabee, a pastor, rock musician and former Arkansas governor. The consensus on the big loser: former Wisconsin governor Tommy Thompson, who said he had to finish first or second to stay in the race and came in sixth.
And how many people in Iowa???

ROVE RESIGNS! ;D
Yes Jan and look for the opening of Seal vs Seal next.
Huckabee paid 58 dollars yet Mitt paid 400 per vote. Some just ate and took the money but never showed up. I'm looking forward to Mitt coming to Riverside Cal. so I can get my 1000 in cash and a good meal. Look it's not everyday an idiot wants to give away food and money.
I need Mr. Kitty to take a look at his hometown candidate John Cox which no one ever hear of.
I'm looking into Hunter who is from Cal but not one word of him in the media.
