Biden: Fifth In Polls, But Third In Endorsements

Joe Biden will announce today the endorsement of IA House Speaker Pro Tempore Polly Bukta. This is the 9th IA legislative endorsement for Biden, who has made such events a central part of his IA strategy.

He's a top tier candidate when it comes to IA supporters but he still lags behind front-runners Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Last week a Wilmington News-Journal article pointed out Clinton had 16 legislative endorsements in IA, while Barack Obama had 10. [EMILY GOODIN]

Is there exit poll data that suggests endorsements effect who votes for who?

Biden is going to surprise in Iowa. If you want a Democratic president, you'll be glad about that. He's the only one who can beat a Republican.

Wonder why he's not doing well in the polls? It's because he has low name recognition. He's not helped by a media that only wants to discuss Clinton and Obama.

I like Biden. I think he would make an excellent President. Unfortunately every time I see him, I think aha the next Secretary of State.

But if he can pull it off, more power to him.
