field is now down to nine heading into new hampshire. lots of glad handing on the campaign trail, spending lots of money in iowa will only get a candidate so far. 1:20 steffen: i think that's what is nice about iowa is we give them a chance to really shine and be great and connect and then we give them a chance to bow out and let the field shrink down. dr. steffen schmidt says that's overlooked part of iowa's first in the nation duty. not just to pick winners of the caucuses, but to weed the candidates out who weren't gaining traction. :47 steffen: caucus night in iowa was an opportunity for some individuals to say i'm just not connecting and i'm dropping out and the did. schmidt says other lower tier candidates who are trying to hang in there after the caucuses may not have much time left. 2:30 i know some of those are still hoping that new hampshire will save their compaign and i think some of them are delusional, they just don't fit into this year's republican environment.

dr. schmidt says candidates like carly fiorina, john kasich, and chris christie are hoping to bounce back after new hampshire but if they don't do well there, they may call it quits. live in the studio, amanda krenz, local five news, we are iowa. stephanie: we want to know what you think about the importance of the iowa caucuses weeding out presidential candidates from the race?

" we saw a record- shattering turnout. as conservatives all across the state of iowa came out and stood together. they put the country on notice that

giant jackpot. crawford and mauro say larry dawson- of webster city- won the following lottery on may of 2011. they claim dawson should've won 16 million. so they want the iowa lottery and m-u-l-s to pay him 10 million plus interest. they're also questioning the security and surviellance practices of both lotto locations.

" i'm sure hillary clinton wanted the audience to chew over her speech, (hillary clinton, (d) presidential candidate) "and we have to be united." but maybe not quite so literally. (jeanne moos, new york) "what are the different nicknames you've had? (peter clinkscales, "sticker boy") "i've gotten sticker boy, sticker man...idiot, that's a popular one." 18-year old peter clinkscales masticated throughout hillary's speech. (hillary clinton, (d) presidential candidate) "an incredible honor to..." the drake university freshman bopped his neck. (hillary clinton, (d) presidential candidate) "we have the opportunity to do now." what looked like a sneeze into his arm was

called the dab. (hillary clinton, (d) presidential candidate) "to have a real contest of ideas" the only idea peter had was to mess around after he and a friend managed to seat themselves right behind the candidate. (peter clinkscales, "sticker boy") "moticed a lot of cameras pointed at me so just started goofing around." and viewers couldn't look away. "can we all just agree that #stickerkid is the one to bring our nation together." (hillary clinton, (d) presidential candidate) "we have to be united." peter's not a hillary fan. though he once posed with bernie sanders, he's not passionate about any candidate and instead of bothering to caucus he came here to fool around. (jeanne moos, new york) "making fish faces behind hillary clinton on national tv...i bet he faced the wrath of his parents when he got home around 1 in the morning." (peter clinkscales, "sticker boy") "my dad was on the computer just laughing at everything that was happening. he was like "you're so stupid."" and when the speech ended, peter danced. mashable tweeted "the mvp of hillary's speech is clearly dancing sticker guy" who joked about selling his leftover hillary

gesture he made is the move of the moment... even hillary has attempted it... behind her back, hillary hasn't been had, she's been dabbed. jeanne moos cnn new york." jack: clinkscales is studying vocal performance at drake, and said he also tried to bring a saxophone into a des moines rally for former president bill clinton to play. but secret service apparently turned him away. stephanie/wxcdl: jack/wxcdl chief meteorologist brad edwards is here now... brad:wxcdl ( local 5 weather is

"it's really easy to be honest with these guys in the recruiting process. division one football is hard. it's not easy we're going to ask a lot of them. this is going to be an attitude and effort based football program. we're really simple and up front. we're probably too up front sometimes in the recruiting process. they're down to earth people. they're just regular people that happen to be football coaches and that's what really drew me. not to bash any of the other schools but these guys were really truthful i had questions like do you have this stuff well no we don't do you have

truthful but like i said just great guys that happen to be football coaches and that's just an easy decision for me when it comes to iowa state. first he wanted to lay the foundation down and get to know him more. you know it starts with winning a big 12 championship. i think today speaks volumes and the track that we're going. do i think there are some major holes. absolutely. did we address some of those? we sure tried to. i think there are some good building blocks in our football program but great programs have a roster from 1 to 105 that are outstanding.

"tough loss frustrating loss played really well especially in the first half. foul trouble negated good things. figured out how to get back and then we didn't close the game well. i

about 2 minutes left. and didn't close well for whatever reason so we gotta get better. we got a great team, great coaching staff. we just gotta finish we finished before. i don't think it's the end of the world we got a lot of plays still to play and anything can happen in this league so we're just going to keep working man keep getting better and just try to get better every day.
