Iowa, One Year Out

The Brian Lehrer Show | Feb 6, 2011

The Iowa Caucus vote is one year away. It's A Free Country is launching a new collaboration with Iowa Public Radio to track voters and issues in that state. Statehouse Reporter Joyce Russell discusses Iowa voters and how their views will effect the 2012 elections. Plus: Huffington Post gets bought by AOL; Peter Coy, economics editor for Bloomberg Business, reviews the new job numbers; evolutionary psychologist Jesse Bering on how we're programmed to believe in God; and calls from "Reagan Democrats" to talk about why they switched parties then, and what party they belong to now.
