The Romney campaign had a great weekend, and I want to be sure to share the news with you. First, on Saturday, we won the Ames, Iowa Straw Poll with 31.5% of the vote, a greater percentage than George W. Bush received in 1999.
Also, this just in … the American Research Group released their latest nationwide poll this afternoon. 16% support Governor Romney, up 6 points from 10% last month. Here are the full results:
| | Jul. | Aug. | Jul./Aug. Change |
| Giuliani | 30% | 27% | -3 |
| Gov. Romney | 10% | 16% | +6 |
| F. Thompson | 17% | 16% | -1 |
| McCain | 14% | 13% | -1 |
| Other | 16% | 15% | -1 |
| Undecided | 11% | 14% | +3 |
Wow - a 6 point pick up in 30 days nationally.

P.S. By the way, the Giuliani camp has tried to diminish Mitt's victory in Iowa by saying Rudy chose to not participate. Three quick points:
1. Giuliani was on the ballot, people could have voted for him
2. If Rudy would have had any shot of beating Mitt in Iowa, believe me, he would have shown up.
3. As Winston Churchill said:
"Wars are not won by evacuation . . ."
