Reply #87: Vilsack has NO dominance in Iowa [View All]

[Debi]

In fact he came in 4th BEHIND Clinton in a poll last summer.

Iowa is wide open and all candidates are welcome and wanted here.

Any support Vilsack has is less than or only equal to any of the other Democratic candidates. There are individuals in Iowa why already support Edwards, Bayh, Clark, Clinton, Kerry, Biden, Dodd, Gore and Obama (my apologies to any candidates that I have left out).

The only reason there is a perception of Vilsack's dominance is because he just announced his candidacy. That warm fuzzy feeling will fade in a week and whoever announces next will get the same amount of fluffy press and rally attendance and people making positive comments about the candidate.

Vilsack has no magic hold on Iowa caucus-goers. The majority of us perfer to vet each candidate before making up our minds.
