Grassley: Romney and Obama Will Win Iowa caucuses

U.S. Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, the highly popular veteran politician with strong crossover appeal and a track record of overwhelming election victories here, says Mitt Romney and Barack Obama will win the Iowa caucuses.

Here is Grassley in a New York Times story:

Even though Mr. Grassley has decided — for the first time apparently — not to endorse anyone in the Republican caucuses, that didn’t stop him today from offering up his predictions: Senator Barack Obama of Illinois for the Democrats and former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts for the Republicans.
