Party at Branstads NOT for Terry; It's for Me

Windsor Heights Republican Representative Chris Hagenow doesn't want you to think the wrong thing if you see an invite to a party for him at the home of the Branstads. Here's the invite I found on Facebook Monday:

Rep. Chris Hagenow - One Year to Victory Celebration at the Branstads!
Host: Eric & Adrianne Branstad, Governor Chris & Terry Branstad
Type: Causes - Fundraiser
Network: Global
Date: Wednesday, November 4, 2009
Time: 5:30pm - 7:00pm
Location: Branstad Residence
City/Town: West Des Moines, IA

Description: Please join Governor Terry and Chris Branstad and Eric and Adrianne Branstad for a One Year to Victory Celebration in support of Rep. Chris Hagenow!

Great Food! Lots of Fun! For a Great Cause!!

I told him some people were wondering if this means Branstad expects to be in the race by the time this party happens. Hagenow told me he planned this gathering a while back with Branstad's son, Eric...long before there was all this talk about Terry B. running again.

Branstad was unavailable for comment. His assistant at Des Moines University said he was out of the office until Wednesday.
