We're journalists, not prognosticators. But in this business, sometimes it is just an irresistible conversation line to turn to each other and ask, 'so, what do you think is really going to happen?'

Monday morning on Good Morning America, Matthew Dowd and George Stephanopoulos put it out there. Dowd says he thinks Rick Santorum is going to snag first place in Tuesday's Iowa Caucus.  That's a big prediction for a candidate who was trailing in last place in the polls just a few weeks ago.  George predicts Romney will take first in the Caucus, but he says he "wouldn't be surprised by Ron Paul or Santorum."

And so, with the understanding that we really don't know what's going to happen for sure (nobody does), here are the predictions of some of the best political minds at ABC News.  This is the order we predict the candidates will finish in Iowa.  What do you think? Tell us below. And on Wednesday we'll call out the winners.  (and I use the phrase 'winners loosely'…the only prize here is bragging rights -  and the opportunity to lord your win over your friends and colleagues).
