A year and some months before the next presidential election, the campaigning is well underway. Over the weekend a straw poll was held in Ames, Iowa to see which GOP candidates. Rising powerhouse Michelle Bachmann stole first place from the previously suspected winner Mitt Romney, who took sixth.
Ironically, Tim Pawllenty, who did fairly well and placed third, has decided to drop out of the race.
Another surprise came in the form of Texas governor Rick Perry who announced his candidancy on Saturday in South Carolina. he managed to snag fifth place on the polling in Iowa despite not being on the ballot at all. His votes were all write-ins!
So to all of our aspiring Republicans, stay strong, keep dodging questions, and try not to get your history facts mixed up (Palin **cough**)
