>> much. for more perspective on all this we turn to david gregory , the moderator of nbc's "meet the press" whose program will be coming from iowa tomorrow morning . good evening, david.
>> hi, kate.
>> so no candidate as kelly just said seems to have this nailed down. why not?
>> well, i think that some of the voters that she spoke to actually addressed this. there is a lack of intensity for any particular candidate in iowa that we've seen in all the polling over the past many weeks. there's certainly intensity in the republican party to beat president obama , and i think it's interesting. one of the candidates who's doing pretty well right now, rick santorum in the final stretch, pennsylvania senator, former senator, is actually on the air with an advertisement saying, hey, i can beat barack obama . i think as governor romney does better, even in this state, it's because folks are looking at him and saying, can he beat barack obama ? he may not be the conservative we necessarily like or that we can get excited about, but he may have the best shot to win. i still think that that's animating a lot of voters. even more conservative voters who want the true conservative in the race.
>> ron paul took the weekend off. but he has a lot of support in that state. could he come? could he win it?
>> well, he certainly could win it or he could come in very strong second. he's got a lot of money. he's been doing a lot of advertising on the air. he's got great organization. we've seen that even when i was here over the summer during the straw poll . that organization turns out. there's a lot of big republican donors who i've talked to who are very upset with paul's surge here in the state and beyond. they think it reflects a new isolationist, libertarian strain in the republican party and they don't believe he can be president but he could do well here.
>> david gregory and a program note rick santorum will be david's guest tomorrow morning on "meet the press" from iowa .
