Sunday Talkers Dig Out, Then Dig Into Final Days of Iowa Race
Having just dug themselves out of the East Coast blizzard, the Sunday morning talk shows focused on the final days before the first-in-the-nation Iowa Caucuses, both for Republicans and Democrats. Much of the focus was on the all-out war that has developed between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz for the GOP nomination.
Don’t worry if you missed it, though. We’ve got it all right here.
