Interview Highlights
– “It’s an important issue (ethanol) out here. “I don’t think it’s an issue that will sink or allow one candidate to rise necessarily, but, I mean, it is a factor. If Senator Cruz wants to explain his opinion (opposition to ethanol), and I know he has an explanation for that, he can take it right to the people out here, and I’m guessing that he will,”
– “I’ll tell you, I think there’s a strong argument that one of those two gentlemen (Cruz & Trump) has the inside track, but this thing is not over yet. Remember the thing about Iowa: There’s more than one ticket out of here. There’s going to be multiple people who are going to have momentum coming out of here, are going to be able to declare victory.”
