Paul after the Staw Poll

Paul stated that Romney spent $2200 per vote (that seems a little high)
Paul said he spent $200 per vote

He did ask his supporters if they wanted to go on, I'm sure he knew the answer, but being the typical Paul, it's their campaign not his. Then he said winning isn't worth it if you have to compromise what you believe in. We will win with our message and not by compromising our principles.

Bush spent $800k which was half of forbes back in 1999.

here's some more money (not all directly on the strawpoll):

Romney has assembled an unrivaled operation for the event: a statewide corps of 60 "super-volunteers," who have been paid between $500 and $1,000 per month to talk him up; a fleet of buses; more than $2 million in television ads in Iowa; a sleek direct-mail campaign; and a consultant who has been paid nearly $200,000 to direct Romney's straw poll production, which will include barbecue billed as the best in the state.

Now they're saying Romney spent $600,000 and Huckabee bought 1850 tickets.
