Iowa caucuses ending in virtual tie between Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum

Iowa Caucuses

In the closest finish in the history of the Iowa caucuses, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum were locked in a virtual dead heat in the first battle for the Republican presidential nomination... Ron Paul, nearly doubling his Iowa vote from 2008, was a close third.

Senh: Edit: Looks like Mitt Romney won by a narrrow margin. Rick Santorum. Where were you hiding all this time. This is complete shocker. Ron Paul is respectable in his third place finish. He and Santorum had the least amount of media coverage, and yet they placed so high in the results.

Iowa Caucuses: New Gingrich

Former House speaker Newt Gingrich, who led Iowa and national polls in November, said Monday he did not expect to win Tuesday's Iowa caucuses, but will declare victory because he has survived an onslaught of negative advertising.

Senh: Is it even fair that a campaign group supporting Mitt Romney can spend $3.5M in attack ads against Newt Gingrich, who don't have that kind of money to spend for a response ad? Romney is campaigning like he's already won the GOP nomination, attacking Barack Obama instead of his fellow GOP candidates.
