Ouch, Bachmann behind Huntsman.
That said, what is the point of these straw polls? They're never accurate compared to the results of the statewide Republican electorate polls. Why do them?
You're right and regular polls are better measures but when the candidates pay attention to them, they bet prestige on them. This result is real ugly for Perry given the expectations. I bet it's less the debate than the merciless press about it (but I say that not having seen the last debate). And as you say, atrocious for Bachmann too.
