Another Dean endorsement?
Take it for what it's worth, but I am listening to Sean Inanity and he just said he hears that Tom Harkin will endorse Dean as soon as tomorrow. If true, it will be HUGE for him in Iowa.

Again, look at the source and judge its merits as you will.

1. And why is Hannity pushing this rumor?
I'm sure he has great sources inside the Harkin camp.

15. Fox News Channel pushing Dean....
Doesn't it bother anyone else that the Fox News Channel is acting like they want Dean to win? Think about that one for a second...

2. Hope so...
If Dean sweeps Iowa, it throws Missouri wide open on Feb. 3! Other than not being there, and missing the media coverage, Iowa is a Win-Win situation for Clark.

6. You're right, Iowa IS a win-win for Clark
If Dean wins, it's curtains for Dick.

If Dick wins, it seriously undercuts Dean.

Avoiding Iowa was genius. :toast:

12. You sure? Geph is from Missouri, so I think he still might
win it despite not winning IA. Kerry's the only major candidate I think might lose his home state.

7. If true, and I wouldn't doubt it, my guy is toast
This will be the crushing blow to Gephardt's chances at the nomination. If so, count me in the Dean camp.

8. the Harkin endorsement might already be in the bag, but it's the
timing that matters, like the Gore endorsement. Luckily for Dean, Gore's endorsement gave him insulation against the Saddam capture that happened two weeks later.

16. If Harkin endorses anyone, I hope it is Dean
That would be great. But I would understand if he felt he could not because of the senate politics involved.
