Kerry taps Norris for Iowa effort
"Democrats say Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry's choice of a former party chairman in Iowa to run his Iowa operations is a sign that Kerry plans a serious caucus campaign even with Missouri Rep. Dick Gephardt in the field."

This is a big deal in the small world of IA Demo activists. John Norris ran an extremely competitive House race on tough turf against Tom Latham last fall. The resume also includes a stretch as chief of staff to Gov. Vilsack and Rep. Boswell, and running Jesse Jackson's `88 campaign (the last was used against Norris in the House race but could boost Kerry's street cred with progressives at caucus time).
Speaking of 1988, isn't this campaign looking awfully familiar? It's almost as if the Clinton Administration never happened...
The worst.
