GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann hasn't been spending much time campainging for support in New Hampshire. A recent Suffolk University poll shows why.

Bachmann, who won the Iowa Straw Poll last month, has just 5 percent support in the New Hampshire based poll. She trails Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, Jon Huntsman, Rick Perry and Sarah Palin (who hasn't announced whether she's running or not).

Romney is well ahead of his rivals in the poll. 41 percent of those polled say they support him. Ron Paul polled at 14 percent. Huntsman is poling at 10 percent. Rick Perry polled at 8 percent. Palin polled at 6 percent. 11 percent of those polled say they're undecided.
