Romney Spokesman: Iowans Pick Corn, Not Presidents

New Hampshire Sen. Judd Gregg, a national co-chairman of the Mitt Romney presidential campaign, appeared on CNN tonight with Wolf Blitzer to discuss politics. In particular, Judd was asked his opinion on the recent increase of support for former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.

When Blitzer asked him point blank how much of a threat Huckabee represented in Iowa, Gregg proceeded to dismiss the entire state:

"Well, I've always, being from New Hampshire, viewed Iowa as being a place where they pick corn and New Hampshire being a place where we pick presidents. So, quite honestly, I don't focus a whole lot on Iowa."

Watch Gregg blow off Iowa in the exchange on CNN below.
