Loebsack Possibly Endorses Obama
February 10th, 2007 at 09:25pm Geraldine
Hotline just reported that Dave Loebsack may have endorsed Barack Obama at Obama’s rally in Cedar Rapids today. Although Leonard Boswell frequently appears at the events of caucus candidates, including Hillary Clinton’s event in Des Moines in January, there seems to be genuine uncertainty about whether Loebsack is pulling the same trick as Boswell or is committed to the Obama campaign. Chase recently speculated on who our congressmen would endorse. It seems possible that in the case of Dave Loebsack, the speculation may be over.

Here’s some Loebsack quotes:
“Iowa takes its job seriously. The caucus process is the most democratic - small d - way to do this, we have the opportunity to talk about the issues and ask the hard questions, and a lot of us have been doing that for a lot of years.”
“The Democrats have Congress, we’re halfway there. We can try to negotiate with the president. But let’s do our job and choose the best person for the Democratic nomination and let’s begin here in Iowa.”
But I didn’t hear him say Obama WAS the best person…
Also, CR Mayor Kay Halloran was there - and she just endorsed Vilsack. I took it as a nice show of respect for Obama and a good chance to say hi to a bunch of fired up constituents. Insert the Dennis Miller disclaimer here.
