"Ed"wards


Worst kept secret revealed: John Edwards still wants to be president. Was there any doubt?
He'll make his announcement in about 35 minutes here at the State Historical Building in Des
Moines, the building just about two blocks from Tom Vilsack's current (for the next two weeks or so, at least) official office. Edwards' Iowa stop comes before he even announces in his home state. Sure looks like he's planning on competing hard on Vilsack's home turf, eh?

Now's the time to watch which homestaters pledge their support where. I just ran into former gov candidate Ed Fallon. No love for the homestater. He's volunteering for Edwards right now.

The homestaters upcoming pledges will be interesting... How about Culver? I wonder how the late hem and haw support from Vilsack will translate when the tables have now turned?

Does Obama have an Iowa office yet?

They don't have an Iowa office, but they do have a state coordinator/outreach guy. Email me at christopherdwoods -AT- gmail.com if you want more information.

Woods - are you an Obama guy, or sitting this one out?

For right now, I'm sitting this one out. However, I have given my 2008 hotlist over at my blog -- you can find the link here. There are candidates I definitely like more than others and I may eventually pick someone, but for now I'm sitting on the sidelines taking it all in.
