It becomes even more interesting when you compare % of delegates to % of votes:

Romney = 126,185 (34.74%) (12 Delegates, 34.29%)
Paul = 82,122 (22.61%) (10 Delegates, 28.57%)
Santorum = 52,921 (14.57%) (7 Delegates, 20%)
Huntsman = 41,650 (11.52%) (2 Delegates, 5.71%)
Gingrich = 39,321 (10.83%) (2 Delegates , 5.71%)
Perry = 14,309 (3.94%) (2 Delegates, 5.71%)
Bachman = 6,416 (1.77%) (0 Delegates)

It also pretty much points to Santorum as the logical conservative alternative, a statement I made before Iowa.

Santorum and Gingrich are pretty much going after the same demographic and will poll within a percent or two of each other until one drops out and endorses the other. Newt is the logical guy to drop out and endorse Santorum anyway you look at it.

That's a good percent to add in there...and actually is the most important one in the end.

In that split, Mitt maintains his similar percentage...but the single conservative is brought up, and his percentage becomes much closer to Romney's.

Romney 12 at 34.29%
Single Conservtive 11 at 31.42%
Paul 10 at 28.57%
Huntsman 2 at 5.71
