D is for Distraction

Most Americans were distracted by the grandiose season finale of So You Think You Can Dance, and weren't even aware that Ron Paul was kicking ass in the FOX News hosted presidential debate to determine the victor in yesterday's Iowa Straw Poll.

Here's a bit of what you may have missed.

Ultimately, Michelle Bachman was declared the victor in the Straw Poll, but won by less than a percentage point over Ron Paul, who received little recognition for his virtual tie for first place. Strangely, the media is making excuses for Mitt Romney's poor performance in the prestigious Straw Poll, saying that he skipped Iowa, yet anyone can plainly see that Mr. Romney was there stumping for votes. In reality, Iowa skipped Mitt Romney.
