I think the momentum -- theres momentum up for rip rick santorum and down for newt gingrich, although this endorsement you just mentioned could be important as he tries to recover. rising above it all is mitt romney. you know, he stayed out of iowa for months and months. now its clear that hes in this race to win it. you can see that from his campaign schedule and also from all the ads he has on the air here. >> and-n your "usa today" article you say, quote to say the iowa contest has been close...
