rick santorum, you ready? three, two, one, poof. it's particularly satisfying to say that about rick santorum, poof. rick santorum came in first place last time in iowa. this time, he came in 11th out of 12. not only does rick santorum have no money in the bank, there are reports today that he's somewhere in the range of about a half million dollars in debt after this very, very failed presidential run this year. unlike mike huckabee who dropped out last night and rand paul who dropped out this morning, rick santorum tonight decided to pair his announcement he's quitting the race with an endorsement of one of his rivals. today on "the fox news show" hosted by my friend, greta van susteren, rick santorum announced he's getting out of the race and announced simultaneously that he wants his zillions, rounding up to the nearest zillions, he wants his supporters to instead support marco rubio. marco rubio. and maybe marco rubio will pay off some of his campaign debt in exchange for the endorsement. i don't know. i'll just point out one r

what do we know about this rick santorum news and and i think rick santorum, the last time we saw him beyond iowa was standing behind donald trump at that fund-raiser the night of the debate. >> that's right, brooke. the ild field is starting to winnow at this point in the race. as you said rick santorum is going to drop out of the 2016 as our john king is reporting. he may be making an announcement around the time he is announcing that. from what we know, he is going to make that announcement tonight. rick santorum won by with a four years ago. and four years later he finds himselfn a very different situation. he finished at the bottom of the pack two days ago in iowa. did not do, certainly not as well as he did four years ago when he actually won the state. i think the question for him, really, and for these other candidates that have dropped out, like mike huckabee, like rand paul, was is there a lane for me in this crowded sflas i'm clearly the decision for santorum was that there was not a lane for him and not a pat forward. whoever he does end up en ---ing, in a could be a power

santorum finished a distant 11-th place with less than one-percent. santorum endorsed marco rubio. mike huckabee bowed out earlier this week. so that leaves ted cruz, donald trump, marco rubio, ben carson, jeb bush, carly fiorina, john kasich, chris christie and jim gilmore still in the running. gilmore received just 12 votes-- not percentage points, but votes-- in iowa on monday. yesterday he tweeted -- that he is "still standing." today martin shkreli will testify on capitol hill. you may recall he raised the price of a life-saving drug by five-thousand today the house oversight and government reform committee will hold a hearing on the rising cost of prescription drugs. the former c-e-o and others will testify during the hearing. if you're looking to file your taxes online today -- you may be out of luck. the irs is still dealing with some computer problems that forced the shut down of its entire e-file system yesterday. this morning, the irs-dot-gove site is working, but "where's my refund" and other things aren't working properly. the outage could affect refunds, but the irs d

former pennsylvania senator rick santorum finished above mitt romney. but it was romney who went on to lose to president obama after santorum later dropped out of the race. 3 as you can see... winning the of getting your party's nomination.... or winning the white house. 3 picking a favorite candidate isn't the only thing people will do at tomorrow (monday) night's caucuses. *after* the vote is taken... they'll move on to the "platform" phase of the caucus.the "platform" or "plank" is best described as what the republican or democratic party should stand for. what ideas or goals do they want their elected officials to strive for? they can be very different from caucus to caucus... and party to party. the head of iowa's democratic party feels there are a number of issues that could be debated. 3 "college affordability seems to be something on a lot of people's minds. and i know all of the candidates are taking about that. in iowa we have a higher college debt to our population than a lot of states do. so, that's one thing i am hearing a lot about. i'm he

let me just ask a quick question here to senator santorum.the g.o.p. candidates to attend the march for life in washington last week. where were you? >> well, i have7<(3 been to the march for life for about 25 years. and i thought -- i think that's a pretty good record. [ applause ] >> spoken at it a few times and i have sheparded every single pro-life piece of legislation that's passed over the last 20 years. i have either authored it or sheparded it through the united states congress. i'm pretty proud of that record, too. [ applause ] but we have an elections going on and there was some snow coming and i decided that maybe it would be better for me to get out and do some campaigning and not be stuck as my wife and kids were for a week piling out of two and a half feet of snow. here's what i would say. if you want someone that's going to talk a good game there are a lot of folks on this stage who have talked a good game on the issue of life. not only i have talked a good game on life, i have done some things, but i have also lived it. you kn

rick santorum was popular four years ago and stuff. he had name recognition.e was in the senate or whatever. he's not that anymore. there's new players. and then he had to coalesce so he can still keep his name out there, so he went with toomey to do their thing. and that's what's going on. >> i think renee's right. in 2012, rick santorum was the fresh face of the ideological candidate that the right wing of the republican party looked for. well, he's been upstaged by ted cruz, who's now the fresher, more of the ideological candidate for them. having said that, for the establishment candidate, i think it's coalescing in support of marco rubio. and one thing that the media has been hammering on, which is now coming true, is that nobody in congress likes ted cruz. >> exactly. >> and ted cruz wears that as a badge of honor. >> he does. >> zero senators. >> that is exactly what the right wing republican party wants to see -- that those who have been elected into congress have compromised the conservative movement. and ted cruz doesn't have a bet. >> yeah, well, he

rick santorum won by just a couple of dozen votes. look at all this brown. that's rick santorum.e how much of this he won. you would think a guy that won so many counts in the state would have run up the score. would have won big. he didn't because these are small rural counts. look how many votes. a couple hundred votes. 300, 500, 800. mitt romney is able to be in a virtual tie because he wanted the population centers in the des moines area and cedar rapids area and up here. so the main point is can donald trump succeed on the romney map? you see all the red on this map. this is the success that mitt romney had. donald trump needs to succeed on the romney map where he faces competition for marco rubio and jeb bush. marco rubio needs to succeed if he's going to make a strong showing and watch these areas tomorrow night. all of this brown that was rick santorum four years ago. the green was mike huckabee 8 years ago. the way to win the caucus is to run up the score in the small rural counts. to offset the establishment. romney wins in the suburbs. rubio wants to win in the suburbs

rick santorum won the state bay couple dozen votes. look at all this brown, that's rick santorum. you can see how much of the state he won. you would think a guy who won so many counties in the state would have run up the score. would have won big. he didn't. a couple hundred votes, maybe 300, 500, 800. mitt romney was able to be essentially in a virtual tie, he won at all the population centers, des moines, cedar rapids, quad city where the airport will be open and up in dubuque. he faces kpet frigs marco rubio and jeb bush. marco rubio needs to succeed on the romney map. see out here all of this brown, rick santorum four years ago, green was mike huckabee ate years ago, the way to win an iowa caucus is to run up the score in the small rural counties to offset the establishment candidates support in the areas with suburbs. romney wins in the suburbs. rubio wants to win in the suburbs. trump needs to perform strongly in the suburbs. if you're ted cruz you need a map like this, you need the huckabee map or the santorum map. if you see tomorrow a lot of donald trump red up in this p

now, santorum is throwing his support behind marco rubio. rand paul also announced the end he is now expected to focus on his senate re-election bid in kentucky. the senator says he plans to endorse a candidate for president, but not during the so, who's left? nine republican candidates remain, down from the 17 that started. in order of votes received in iowa, you have cruz, trump, rubio, carson and bush, along with fiorina, kasich, christie and gilmore. allyson: to the latest now in the outbreak o. the virus has now reached georgia. health officials say the first travel-related case of the virus has infected a person. they say a person traveled to december and the first of janu that person has made a full recovery and was not pregnant. health officials are still stressing that the virus is primarily spread through mosquito bites. patrick: and back in our area, on whether a quik-trip gas station should be built in a west end neighborhood. the site is at the corner of academy street near the intersection of markley street. you see that locati

santorum did it four years ago as well. we're counting down the minutes, maybe even get into the seconds until the doors are both opened and closed at precincts and the community centers around the state as the caucuses actually begin. i'm now joined by vaughn hilliard, one of our nbc news embeds, who has been in iowa for months. he's seen a lot of cruz during his full grassley and will be traveling with cruz after he leaves the state of iowa. so, vaughn, let's assess the iowa campaigns and the organizations. because one of the things that you've been sounding the alarm on to us and new york and washington has been stop underestimated donald trump organizationally. explain. >> -- he's had five, six, seven stops over one day, in the course of a five to six-day stretch, hitting 25 stops over six days. but what donald trump's team has tried to do is make up for his lack of presence when he sometimes goes for a week without being here. one thing is they've been slighted unfairly to a certain degree. they have about 15 staffers

rick santorum has e eed his republican presidential bid. the former pennsylvania senator made the announcement on fox news last night. since announcing his run back in may, santorum's campaign failed to pick up any momentum. santorum also announced he's now supporting senator marco rubio as the presidential pick. santorum praised rubio's policies to support working americans and address national security threats. someone who has a real the threat of isis, real understanding of the threat of fundamentalist islam and has experience, i mean one of the things i wanted is someone who has some experience in this area, and that's why we decided to support marco rubio. santorum won the 2012 iowa caucuses, and was the final republican presidential challenger to mitt romney. in the 2016 race, santorum never qualified for the primetime stage in any of the seven republican presidential debates. the 42nd president, bill clinton, paid columbia a visit last night. he spoke at allen university to encourage south carolina democrats to vote for his wife, hil

des moines showed chris hayes the tally sheet only there were no votes for santorum on it. >> and santorum there's an "x" next to him. >> yeah. yeah. >> well, you didn't vote for him? >> i -- as i was writing down, my pen ran out of ink. i can't ask someone for a pen while i'm doing this. >> you're the santorum dude. >> yeah. >> failure to launch. >> failure to launch is what it sounds like. >> 18 hours after iowa's democratic caucuses began, the associated press officially declared hillary clinton the winner. the iowa democratic party reports that clinton won 49.8% of state delegate equivalents, while sanders won 49.6%. but on a day when so many of the headlines framed caucus night as a victory for senator sanders, no matter what placed -- what place he finished in, both he and secretary clinton framed their performances as historic. >> i am so thrilled that i'm coming to new hampshire after winning iowa. i could tell you will i have won and i lost there. it's a lot better to win. >> last night in iowa, we made history. we started off in that state depending on the poll 40, 50, maybe 60 p

santorum's campaign never gained much momentum since his announcement may 27. low polling numbers forced him into the undercard debates. presidential candidates have their focus zeroed in on the new hampshire primary. charles molineaux will give us an update on the campaign trail in about five minutes. the columbia police department has made an arrest in connection to a sexual assault that occurred last weekend on barnwell street near usc. police say carlos hernandez turned himself in this morning at police headquarters. he's now charged with first degree criminal sexual assault and kidnapping. hernandez remains in the alvin s. glenn detention center awaiting it was a big day for high school football stars because it's national signing day! players have heard the sales pitches....now it's sports director rick henry has more on the class of 2016. i think both usc and clemson fans are pleased about the guys they've picked up. we'll start with the gamecocks. head coach will muschamp puts together a solid recruiting class for his first usc signing day. muschamp hit

rand paul, rick santorum, they dropped out. the iowa caucuses, in part by playing dirty tricks on ben carson. cruz fired back at trump. meantime, on the democratic side, some sparring over who's a progressive and who isn't. it began yesterday, with a question for senator sanders about whether his opponent truly is. listen. >> some days, yes. except when she announces that she is a proud mode.

rick santorum was the actual winner and many argue that mistake cost santorum all important momentum. this year, iowa is working to make sure history doesn't repeat itself. mary snow, al jazeera. >>> let's take a look at that history on the democratic side. barack obama, john kerry, al gore, all of them winning iowa. obama's eye was not win in 2008 established him as the front runner. republicans mike huckabee and rick santorum won iowa but went on to loose the election in 2000. george bush won iowa and the white house. >>> bracing for a major winter storm, although not affecting the caucuses, the storm is forecasted for this evening worsening overnight. in southern california, a powerful storm hammered that region. at least one person was killed, the storm as you can see, uprooting dozens of trees, downing power lines and prompting flash flood warnings. thousands there are in the dark. >> in california, the woman charged with helping three inmates escape a jail in southern california is going to be arraigned today. all three of the men are now back behind bars. >> the timing i was ar

lukas republican candidate rick santorum is forgoing a campaign in new republican candidate rick santorum is forgoing a$& campaign in new hampshire to focus on south carolina. the former senator from pennsylvania has presented himself as the conservative alternative to ted cruz... but proving that will be tough as cruz has already captured the hearts of many conservatives and the deep pockets of donors. santorum, is hoping his third place seed with south carolina voters four years ago will yield a big return during the state's primary later this month. lukas and looking ahead to next week... the nation's first primary vote takes place in new hampshire. bernie sanders and donald trump currently hold big leads in the according to a recent c-n-n... w-m-u-r poll. 30 percent of likely republican primary voters polled are backing trump. that's more than double the support of his nearest competitor, ted uz, who stands at 12 percent. sanders is way ahead of clinton in new hampshire. the poll showed sanders with 57- percent support to clinton's 34 percent lukas candidates are desperately trying to

rand paul and rick santorum both suspended their presidential bids. and some nasty allegations are flying against the winner of the iowa caucuses: ted cruz. today- donald trump- once again on the attack- tweeting- (gfx tweet) ted cruz didn't win iowa, he stole it. (gfx tweet)..calling for a "new election" in iowa after the cruz campaign sent out this e-mail to supporters- falsely suggesting doctor ben carson was leaving the race. trump telling boston herald radio - he plans to file an official complaint. sot "its fraud..when you think of it and he picked up a lot of those votes and that's why the polls were wrong." cruz- responding - sot: it seems his reaction to everything is to throw a fit, to engage in insults and i understand that donald finds it very hard to lose, also tweeting- "bernie is contesting" iowa results. maybe donald should go back to iowa and join the democrats. conceding in iowa, after coming in just 2 tenths of a point behind hillary clinton. the vermont senator - with a double digit lead in the polls in new hampshire. sanders: secr

santorum. charlie. >> thank you. my name is charlie and tonight i'm here too vote for rick santorum. a faithful husband, a home-school dad to seven children, and a former u.s. senator from pennsylvania. our top priority tonight must 2003 vote for the person who is friend be commander in chief on die one. rick has the most foreign policy experience of all the candidates. he served eight years on the senate armed services committee. he helped modernize our military, and authored sanctions on syria and iran. rick is the only candidate isis has targeted by name as their enemies. at home our conservative values are under attack, not a only by foreign fighters but also by the political establishment that wants to us remain silent about our moral values. yet we can't have limited government without a moral code that binds us and constrains our passions. moral justice natural law are the bases for the conversation and the american way of life and co-exist comprimise these values -- led to our founders

santorum sits in last place... also with two percent. here's how he responded when asked if he'd endorse another candidate.. 17:20:03 "anybody married here? you're married. okay. if i asked you the question, 'who would you marry other than your wife, would you answer that question? okay. i'm not answering that question." 17:20:14 :01-:11 after trump and cruz on the leaderboard.. marco rubio and ben carson.. round out the top four in the des moines register bloomberg politics poll. on to the democrats - frontrunner hillary clinton is maintaining her slim lead over bernie sanders. right now, the former secretary of state is finishing up her last campaign stop here in des moines at lincoln high school. clinton took the stage earlier today with her husband, bill, and daughter, chelsea, in front a full audience in sioux city... chelsea said that her mother for her soon expected child... 1:12:28 - 1:34:12 across town, bernie sanders is rallying support at grandview university.... sanders campaign is largely driven by young voters and he's trai

traditionally rick santorum and mike huckabee would have won. trump's numbers are so strong he is almost neck-and-neck with ted cruz. almost anything in this election cycle, people want to win. republicans want to elect a winner. rick santorum, mike huckabee nice men but didn't do anything tearily important after the iowa caucus win. evangelical voters maybe give up a bit because they're caught up in the trump momentum. it is not as meaningful as it was four years ago. trish: he in church in iowa over the weekend. there is funny anecdote. they were passing communion at the church, he thought it was offererrer to, pulled out a few bucks, put it in the communion. no, no. it is communion. you wonder, evangelicals he is trying to prove to them he is one of them, but not clear how much message is getting through. here he is trying to drive it hem on facebook. watch. >> i really appreciate the support given to me by evangelicals. they have been incredible. every poll says how well i'm doing with them. you know, my mother gave me this bible, this very

unlike santorum, senator paul didn't say if he will endorse any of the remaining g-o-p candidates. the republican nomination is looking like a three-man race -- for now -- heading into new hampshire -- with donald trump holding on to a huge lead leadthe gloves are coming off while republican candidates slug it out for votes. trump went on a twitter rant wednesday accusing ted cruz of cheating to win the iowa caucus. the cruz campaign has been accused of trying to shift votes away from ben carson monday night.carson says a rumor was spread through some caucus locations that he was dropping out of the race.cruz said he is not aware of his supporters doing that and disapproved of those tactics.an iowa g-o-p spokesman tells cbs 2 news no fraud was committed and the caucus results are final. and right now in it's degrees. degrees.after the break...we find the people super bowl 50 is helping out leading up to the big game on cbs 2. main weather- your planner shows what's ahead for the features a much calmer morning - a few roads remain slippery so be careful!- now a live look outside cou

today rick santorum and senator rand paul did the same. santorum finished eleventh.. paul fifth. paul was questioned about possibly dropping out in the months leading up to the caucuses... and in response made it clear he wasn't amused with the gimmicks that come with campaigning... is rand paul still running for president and uh... i wouldn't be doing this dumbass live streaming if i weren't there could be more live streams in paul's future. he's still running for reelection for his senate seat in kentucky. do-over... cnn's sunlen serfat has the story... "what kind of people are we dealing with, with these politicians?" trump on a new tear against ted cruz.... "he insulted ben carson by doing what he did to ben carson. that was a disgrace." today.... fanning the flames....to the controversy over what last-minute tactics the cruz campaign used in iowa.....accused of trying to shift votes away from ben carson to cruz. declaring "fraud" .....trump tweeting that cruz...
