he is in second place now in iowa. that news may have gotten under his skin, because that skin is like an orange peel, but not that thick. here's some of his media rampage in which he goes after some of his republican hopefuls, starting with jeb bush. >> he is losing, he is getting killed. he is meeting now with mom and dad. [laughter] >> no, it's true. i like ben but he cannot do with trade like i do with trade. ben carson is a very low-energy person. ben is lower energy than jeb. he doesn't even go to iowa that much. you look at carson, he is very weak on illegal immigration. he said they would come in from love. rubio, the gang of eight, he is way down. this guy was so weak and all of a sudden he said maybe i can do that. they are all week on immigration. john: we talked about the two legacy candidates. what do you think about where he is right now? mark: the trunk doubters will say this is the beginning of the end. this is a test. he is behind now and he has to figure out how he fights in iowa. he hasn't gone on tv

only in iowa. the rest, we're killing. >> and while he was at it, donald trump raised ben carson's religion. seventh day adventist, a religion like most religions that donald trump doesn't know anything about. >> look, i don't have to say it, i'm presbytarian. can you believe it? i don't know can believe impress tearian. i'm presbytarian. i'm presbytarian. boy, that's down the middle of the road, folks, in all fairness. i mean, seventh day adventist i don't know about. i just don't know about. >> here is ben carson's response on sunday morning. >> it's kind of interesting because the conflict that we had a couple months ago is he thought he was questioning his faith and he went ballistic on that. so it seems a little interest that he would now be doing that. you know, i really refuse to really get into the mud pit. >> joining us now kasie hunt, msnbc political correspondent joins us from boulder, colorado, the site of wednesday's republican debate on cnbc. and also with us, opinion writer for the "

i think donald trump is panicking in iowa. maybe he should be panicking. >> it was joe kennedy who raised the issue for his uncle ted. you've i got the facts straight there. i remember everything. religion out or in, you can argue all you want, but it helps to be an evangelical or conservative catholic in iowa. we know that. pat robinson almost won out there, huckabee won there. santorum. people who can't win anywhere else win in iowa. perry? >> i think trump is talking about making the wrong case here. i don't think people are for carson because of the sort of tenets seven-day adventist. they want someone devout in their faith. carson talks about his faith all the time. he is very devout. in that way he is in the same huckabee and santorum bucket. trump you can tell is not someone who spends time thinking about religion until this campaign. i think it is a mistake to go after trump. he is not going to win the campaign. >> it's not the affiliation but the devoutness, the fidelity, whether you are a man of faith. sabrina, is tha

in particular in iowa, for jeb bush. so important because before get vote you have to become satisfactory. that just makes much higher hurdle for some of them. >> dickerson: that's right. you have jeb bush. in terms of their ability to grow or they have harder time, only one who is really doing well who has high unsatisfactory number there is trump. does this create room for candidates who -- with whom voters are satisfied even if they're not yet ready to put them at the top of the horse race poll? >> trump is polarizing. you are either for him or not for him at all. his supporters would be satisfied. everybody else would not. in terms of room, some of the ratios you see for marco rubio for ted cruz, people aren't necessarily backing them right now. but they say that they would be satisfied if they ended up as the nominee. that could be room. >> dickerson: also ben carson doing very well in the satisfied question. anthony, thanks so much. nancy in des moines, iowa, thank you. we'll be back in a moment. and can you explain

as the temperatures drop, not everyone has a warm place to call home.now there's an effort in iowa city to help the homeless through the winter months. but as cbs 2 news reporter mellaney moore explains explainsr one shelter - there's more than money standing in the way. there is no doubt about it, it's getting colder outside. the building that housed a temporary shelter last year is unavailable....so now organizers need a new space. space. the shelter house in iowa city needs more than their 70 beds on winter's coldest nights. last year...the shelter tried out a new program.14:56:40 the temporary shelter was a shelter that opened upbetween 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. and there were 124 unique shelter.area homelesespeople could come to get warm... even while under the influence. 14:56:56 the mission of that was, is to get people out of the cold in the winter so that pecple didn't have to experience the winter conditions and not have to deal with things such as frostbite and even death.the shelter house is trying to get the program going again and thinks they'll

in iowa, there's strong evangelical turnout. in past years, we've seen governor huckabee winning, senator santorum winning in iowa. they obviously did not go on to win in other states and to get the nomination. does dr. carson believe that after iowa, however he does, whether he wins, or however he places, that he has to in any way change his focus, his message, particularly if he makes it into a general election? >> of course, his message will evolve, anderson. of course, his policies, the more depth. and also, as you get to that point that you just mentioned, hopefully, if dr. carson is still in the top tier, there will be less candidates on that debate stage, and you will have a more robust debate where you really get really in depth and to the issues, you have more time for responding and answering. so, obviously, as this progresses along, there will be less people vying for that two-hour, precious time. and so, that will make a huge difference. it will really give him an opportunity where he does best, getting into the real
