The Santorum Surge Comes Up Just A Bit Short.

So, it took until late, late in the night, but it looks like Mitt Romney edged out Rick Santorum by a handful of votes to take the contest in Iowa, and all 25 of its delegates. Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich filled out the top 4. Bachmann and Perry have "suspended" their campaigns. Even Herman Cain got a handful of votes, which says so much about our electoral process, yet so little at the same time.

And with that, it's pretty clear to anyone with a working set of eyes that Mittens is going to be the guy that loses to Obama come November. Congrats GOP!

Question: Can you draw any conclusions from last night's results?
