What were your expectations for today in % of votes

[SteveMartin]

12% +/- 1%.

 

[Honey]

20%, tying with Romney for 2nd or a very close third. I was very disappointed until I read that 70% of Republicans in Iowa still believe that George W. Bush is doing a great job as president.

 

[Shavenyak]

I was hoping for a third place 16% with Romney and Huckabee in the 25-35% range.

 

[stevedasbach]

10-18%; 3rd-5th place.

 

[RevolutionSD]

I was thinking 12-14% and finishing definitely ahead of Fred.

 

[JMO]

I was expecting about 15%. However I think 10% is optimistic. I was thinking we would get 3rd or 4th place, I really didn't think both Fred Thompson and John Mccain would beat us, I thought between those 2 and Rudy we would beat 2 of the 3.

 

[Michael Landon]

I was thinking between 10-15% but I figured we would have been 3rd ahead of Guiliani, McCain and Thompson so I'm feeling good about our chances.

[Justicar333]

Was hoping for 15% or a third place finish. We did good, but not so good as meh had hoped.

 

[scoot87]

The phone polls pretty much had Paul at 7%. To get 10% does show the distortion in the polls. I am confident for an even bigger surprise in 5 days...

 

[Austin]

My guess was 17%, based on the false hope the campaign gave the volunteers.
