Podcast: 'On Iowa Politics' talks latest polls, endorsements and the role of surrogates in presidential campaigns

This week on the podcast, reporters discuss who's ahead in the latest polls of Iowa caucusgoers, Sarah Palin's endorsement of Donald Trump and Gov. Terry Branstad's 'un-endorsement' of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, and the role surrogates play in campaigns.
