Debate 'raised the stakes' on the straw poll
Tonight's debate ``raised the stakes'' on Saturday's straw poll, as candidates sought to differentiate themselves to voters who are much more undecided than in past caucus cycles, Iowa Republican Party Chairman Matt Strawn said.
Congressman Ron Paul won yet another straw poll today, receiving an astounding 82% of the Iowan-only vote at National Federation of Republican Assemblies first ever-presidential straw poll.
