In just over a week, the nation’s eyes turn to Iowa for the first-in-the-nation test of presidential candidates.
On this special edition of River to River, called "Pints and Politics," columnists Todd Dorman and Lynda Waddington of The Gazette, as well as Gazette political reporter James Lynch, join host Ben Kieffer and co-host Jennifer Hemmingsen to talk about what this very surprising campaign season means for Iowa and for the nation.
They also discuss the implications of recent endorsements (including Branstad's anti-endorsement of Ted Cruz), predictions on who will leave Iowa with momentum, the impact and takeaways from political polls, and some of the panelists' favorite stories from the campaign trail.
