This Is Why Sarah Palin and Paul Ryan Probably Won't Get in the Race

Talk about your quick starts:

Pollster Scott Rasmussen is about to release the first national post-straw poll numbers. The results:

Perry 29, Romney 18, Bachmann 13, Paul 9.

It looks like Rick got out more of a bang out of Iowa and the Battle of Waterloo than Michele did.

This may also start an exodus of other candidates. Do Cain, Gingrich, Santorum, Huntsman or Paul really have ANY serious chance at the nomination? No.

UPDATE:  Here's the link to the actual poll.
