today on inside politics a cold campaign reality. blizzard conditions in iowa mean chaos for republican candidates trying to reach every voter they can. the crucial question, how much will the dangerous weather impact turnout on caucus night? plus, firing back. president biden ordered airstrikes against iran-backed rebels who have been firing at commercial ships, fuelling fears that the middle east could be on the edge of an all-out war. and, i don t hate her. that s the faint praise some iowa republicans are giving nikki haley. we will hear what some voters are really thinking in a brand-new focus group. i m dana bash. let s go behind the headlines and inside politics. we start in iowa, which is under a blizzard warning today. it is freezing there. now, i m sure you re thinking, duh, it is january. obviously it is cold in iowa, but this is different. it is brutally cold. historically cold. so cold that iowans are being told not to even take a step outside, and it
