+++ Hey, what the heck happened to Tom Vilsack?+++ |

He's gone completely dark. Hillary Clinton is not even using him as a surrogate on TV which is very odd since he's still is a very prominent Clinton backer. After the loss in Iowa, Vilsack just vanished like a fart in the wind. Any theories of where Vilsack is? :cry: :shrug:

2. Vilsack wasn't very popular in Iowa |
|
He didn't help Hillary much. I don't think he would help Obama.

dhoenig@thehawkeye.com
MOUNT PLEASANT -- Tom and Christie Vilsack have always considered Mount Pleasant home, even while living at Terrace Hill as Tom served as governor of Iowa.
Recently, however, the Vilsacks decided to sell their former residence and, for now, live exclusively in a new house they purchased in Des Moines.
The Vilsacks have occupied the house at 402 N. Main St. since the early 1980s,

8. all of the surrogates have gone quiet |
|
at Hillary's big fund raiser she could muster only 2 Reps. Charlie and some other congresswoman.
The funniest line of the fund raiser "If you don't think that things are going well in the campaign just turn off the TV"

9. "Milquetoast" dems are not in the spotlight long |
|
there's a long line of 'em:
Gephardt Vilsack Bayh Dodd Biden
they lack charisma..and that's what draws people to them long enough to hear what they are saying
