Video: Final count: Santorum beat Romney in Iowa



>>> let's begin on a thursday morning with breaking news. the surprising new totals from the iowa caucuses . chuck todd is nbc's political director and the chief white house correspondent. he's in rock hills, south carolina this morning. two and a half weeks ago we thought mitt romney won by eight votes, now it appears that rick santorum won by 34 votes. will this impact the race? or should it impact the race at this stage?

>> well, will it and should it? it is interesting. because when you look at how mitt romney has spun his first two victories. he talked about it was historic and the fact that no republican had ever won both iowa and new hampshire in the same year. and in fact, 72 hours ago we were talking about almost a coordination. he was going to go 3-0. well here he is now in a 48-hour period and a week ago for mitt romney thinking he was about to go do something that nobody had done before. and either side, win all three, a nonincumbent, iowa , new hampshire , south carolina . now he can come out of here, if he doesn't win here and be 1-2. and only have won a primary that was held in his back yard in new hampshire . so you know, it can have an effect on the perception of mitt romney 's inevitability. does it help rick santorum ? unclear. because yesterday, for instance, i was at one of his events and he was talking about this for 20 minutes . he was talking about the fact that you know what, it may turn out i won iowa . well, it may be too late for him to take advantage of it.
