Former Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman is making a "mistake" to skip the Iowa caucuses, Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) said Tuesday.

Grassley, the dean of Iowa's congressional delegation, called into question Huntsman's assumption that because he opposes subsidies for ethanol, he couldn't compete in the caucuses, the first nominating contest of the 2012 cycle.
