 excerpts
from
the Iowa Daily Report
April
2003
...The
party’s website said the usual suspects – Kerry,
Lieberman, Edwards, Gephardt, Dean –
have agreed to participate in the debate and
“no commitments” have been received from Sharpton
or Graham. No word on website about
Moseley Braun, Kucinich, Hart
-- or Hillary or Biden or
CNN war commentator Clark. State
convention originally set for Saturday morning
has been moved to afternoon – and Friday
night Jackson-Jefferson Day event will feature
LA Sen. Landrieu as keynoter. (4/8/2003) …
Vilsack’s
Big Four (or
possibly Big Five) analysis
is reflected in latest New Hampshire survey
showing Kerry at 24% with Dean running at 19%.
The poll analysis by the American Research
Group – for the survey conducted 4/15-4/17
– said Kerry
maintained his lead while
Dean
has “lost some of his pre-war momentum from
a month ago.”
Undecided voters (19%) same as Dean,
while Gephardt
third with 15% and Lieberman at 13%.
That’s the Big Four in NH. The
bad news for the rest of the field:
Three – including Edwards
along
with non-candidates (so far) Biden
and
Wesley
Clark
– get 2%.
The 1%
candidates include
Graham,
Kucinich, Moseley Braun and
aspiring wannabe Hart.
Meanwhile, Sharpton
maintained an irrefutable record in the NH
American Research Group poll – a perfect 0%
for the fourth monthly survey in a row. (4/19/2003) …
Until Hart, Hillary, Clark or somebody else
comes along to join the Wannabe Nine, Harkin
has finalized the schedule for the
“candidate forums” he is
hosting around IA during the coming months. Harkin outlined
the plans for the first six candidates – and
forums – earlier, but has now found dates
and locations for all nine. Edwards
was first to appear at the Bush-bashing
orgy earlier this month and Dean’s up
next – 5/18 in Davenport. AP’s Mike
Glover reports the rest: Graham 6/7 in Council
Bluffs; Kerry 6/22 Mason City;
Gephardt 7/13 Dubuque; Kucinich
7/27 Ottumwa; Moseley Braun 8/3 Waterloo;
Sharpton 8/5 Sioux City; and Lieberman
9/21 Cedar Rapids.(4/24/2003)
