Obama, Live: Did He Nab His First Iowa Nod?

At his first stop in Iowa as a presidential candidate, Barack Obama may have secured the support of one of the key newcomers in Iowa. Freshman Rep. Dave Loebsack, who pulled one of the bigger upsets in '06 by defeating longtime GOP Rep. Jim Leach, participated in the official program at the Obama rally. Loebsack, who hasn't endorsed in the WH '08 race didn't officially endorse Obama today, but he did introduce the person who introduced Obama.

For some, just being involved in the official program can be construed as support. We'll find out for sure if Loebsack's appearance was indeed an endorsement.

In New Hampshire, Representatives Paul Hodes and Carol Shea-Porter both introduced Hillary in their home districts. Why no mention of this?

Barak Obaman just won 2008. The media is not going to be able to stop this. Republicans are not going to be able to stop this. The "second" black American President is about to take office. America just got off its duff.
