The Iowa straw poll is a more-or-less meaningless exercise, but it still seems to be the case that Ames winner Mitt Romney is on track to win the nomination. Somewhat curiously, I don’t see this reality reflected all that much in the national coverage of the GOP race, but he has the most money and he’s leading in the early primary states. Obviously, nothing’s in the bag for him (or anyone) yet, but I feel like his third place status the last time I checked Tradesports is badly underselling his odds.
I’ve got him rated as a must buy at 22 cents on the dollar, but I don’t want to open myself up to charges that I’m puffing Romney up (he’s already won the crucial Yglesias Endorsement in the GOP primary) for financial gain.
