Romney raised about what people expected. It'll be interesting to see how Bachmann did as a relatively unknown candidate just really getting in.

The panel really only saw Pawlenty as on the verge of washing out particularly as he hasn't gained traction in Iowa despite the expended effort there.

The field isn't settled but those who didn't get in yet passed up some important time for fundraising opportunities for one reason or another.
