Just a few points.

1. Romney, Bachmann and Johnson were not on the ballot.

2. I’ve read that Romney is pleased with the result as this may knock his chief rival, Perry, out of the race or, at least, cause some damage to Perry’s campaign.

LOL, I don't think so. Romney has been running for 6 years and Perry just entered the race, put in a terrible debate performance, and STILL beat Romney!

We're going to have to get out there and raise some money for Cain. Sarah should help. She won't be getting into the race now because she said if there was a credible conservative candidate she wouldn't run, but she can sure help raise some money for Herman.

Got a source on that?

You are 66.666% incorrect. Romney and Bachmann names were indeed on the ballot. However, neither of them chose to speak or send a representative to speak on their behalf this afternoon prior to the straw poll. Johnson was not on the ballot.
