Buying in: 2008 and the Dems List

Buying in: 2008 and the Dems List

The IDP offered a cut rate on their database to early buyers. So who's anted up?

Vilsack - not a shocker. Edwards and Warner - both of whom are here often enough that they may soon qualify for resident status. And the odd surprise - Dodd, who's getting his act together but hasn't been here yet.

Tom Beaumont expresses the greatest surprise that Evan didn't Bayh in (ouch and sorry).

Massachusetts U.S. Sen. John Kerry, who won the 2004 caucuses, bypassed the deal. Likewise, Delaware U.S. Sen. Joe Biden, retired Gen. Wesley Clark, former South Dakota U.S. Sen. Tom Daschle and Wisconsin U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold turned down the offer.


Ans is this an oversight - the article doesn't even mention HRC. Not a surprise that she didn't buy in as she's committed to pretending Iowa doesn't exist until after her re-elect. But omitting her name from a list of contenders is a big oops.
