Welcome back to our continuing coverage of this very exciting, really the first night that really platters in this election, the night of the caucuses in iowa. shannon travis is standing by in cedar falls at a site where some 6,000 people are going to be caucusing tonight. michele bachmann is already there. were going to be addressing the crowds. shannon, what is the scene there? having a problem get together shannon. well check in with him a little later. over the past six months it seemed ther...

Gingrich and texas governor perry, who is reassessing his campaign in texas. what about the time we focused on the horse race and obviously, it is late, its 2:22 eastern time. but still, we have spent a lot of time talking about those two people? >> we d. but thats the story here. i wouldnt have said this before tonight and i expected it -- iowa not to winnow as much as it has in the past. i think that bachmann and perry are likely to be out. i think newt is in a tough decision. what could rick ...

This rest of the field, the finish for ron paul and newt gingrich and texas governor perry, who is reassessing his campaign in texas. what about the time we focused on the horse race and obviously, it is late, its 2:22 eastern time. but still, we have spent a lot of time talking about those two people? >> we d. but thats the story here. i wouldnt have said this before tonight and i expected it -- iowa not to winnow as much as it has in the past. i think that bachmann and perry are likely to be o...

Sore at what happened in iowa. >> does he have to score well in new hampshire? >> i think the debates will be extraordinarily important and intense. well probably have rick perry off the stage, we may have michele bachmann off the stage. introduce jon huntsman back. we havent talked much about him. >> hes going to be on. >> i think newt gingrich in both the saturday night debate and then the debate on "meet the press" on sunday is going to have an opportunity to make that case in that higher pro...

Agonizing reappraisal. newt gingrich came in fourth with only 14% of the vote launched what sounded like a new strategy as he heaped praise on rick santorum who took his place as leader of the anti-romney voters. >> i admire his focus and how positive he was. it wish i could say it for all the candidates. >> the ever-inventive gingrich appeared to embrace unusual and vague plan to join forces in some way with santorum who came within eight votes of beating mitt romney. when asked by radio anchor...

Youve got romney with 18, santorum, eighth, rick paul whos off to texas, four. newt gingrich, two. bachmann and huntsman each with zero. those are the counts very, very early in the process. were now off to new hampshire and im off to see john king. lets look ahead a little bit. iowa is now history, important history. were moving onto new hampshire, south carolina, florida, nevada. >> if this were five hours ago, essentially since were waking up, people are still in the middle of the campaign. h...

Intelligent, dignified way. there is a debate saturday night and suspected morning. santorum says, thats great. but lets face it. if it was me and mitt, 14 votes apart, i would challenge him foa one-on-one debate on monday or a week later in south carolina. i think if i were santorum, i would be thinking of a way to really try to bring home and make concrete the notion that its me and mitt. lets have a polite debate, open-ended debate, whatever and get out of this multiple mud throwing in differ...

Four people. newt gingrich who has no reason to stay in this. and bachmann, bachmann is gone. and if your friend in texas is not, he might want to think about it. another six-shooter. because he probably should be. eventually, money does dry these people out. i think what has happened now is what romney has got is ideal situation in new hampshire where he has a lot of people splitting up the vote. from his standpoint, he probably wins. but the biggest winner -- i didnt need visine. i was asleep ...

To be for maritt romney? >> a good stroke for mitt romney. theyve had differences over the past years. so thats a nice way to come into new hampshire with momentum for romney. iowa cleared the field. three clear losers with perry, bachmann and gingrich, and three clear winners with santorum, romney and paul. so the question is, what happens in new hampshire? the problem for romney that hes got very high expectations. everybody expects him to win and win big. so the real story out of new hampshir...
