According to the Register Edwards said in Des Moines yesterday that he’s “seriously considering” another run for the presidency. And he’s not fooled by Vilsack’s reticence either:
“Obviously if the governor decides to run that will be a huge factor here in his own state,” Edwards said.
Unlike candidates in 1992, who didn’t contest Harkin in Iowa, Edwards said “I don’t think what other people do is going to influence what decision I make, and then if I decide to run, how.”
The Register is also covering Fallon’s statement of support for the party’s nominee. For the most part it’s the same statement on his website & stuff we already know, but it does include a positive mention:
Fallon has a loyal, grass-roots following and often scores the loudest applause during candidate events where he appears with the others.
The article also mentions some new Blouin proposals:
In other primary news, Blouin proposed restoring cuts to the state’s community college system over the past five years. The proposal was the third in a series related to education by the Blouin campaign this spring.
Blouin also proposed spending an additional $40 million on job-training programs affiliated with Iowa’s community colleges. The announcement came in the wake of a financial scandal involving the management of a central Iowa job-training program.
