What is highlighted is the fact that she, nor her husband, have ever really had to fight for Iowa. In 1992, they got to skip the state because of Harkin’s run. In 1996, Bill was the incumbent and essentially won the caucuses by default. So now, over 10 years since the last Iowa Caucus where Bill Clinton even had to show up, and in a state she hasn’t been to in three years, Hillary Clinton now has to organize an Iowa campaign without any kind of leftovers from past cycles. Thankfully for Sen. Clinton, she’s got Bonnie Campbell’s support, which can get you some organization and early support here in Iowa.

We thought it would be worthwhile to revisit some of our past coverage of Hillary and the caucuses. This includes one post on the challenge that Hillary faces in Iowa and why the caucuses are still wide open. But for now, my biggest concern is how it looks when I have to explain that the url www.brownback.com is in my history and why it’s totally non-sexual. Hillary Clinton may be getting the attention today but Sam Brownback will still have a hilarious last name tomorrow.
