Tonight on the program, GOP presidential hopefuls make their final pitches to try to get out the vote in Iowa. Also, we look at the historical implications of the Iowa caucuses and what they could mean for candidates going forward. Finally, we get a report on Syrians living in the United States and the difficulties their families back home could face if they speak out against the Assad regime.
