Talking Points Memo reports that Iowa's top Hillary Clinton backer, former governor Tom Vilsack, will be in New York Monday afternoon (June 11) to brief invited "Hillraisers" -- people who are committed to raising more than $25,000 for Clinton.
Greg Sargent of TPM notes:
One possible reason for the gathering -- though this is speculation -- could be that Vilsack's coming to New York to carry the message that Hillary's got a tough race on her hands in Iowa.
Such a message would remind her fundraisers that their support will be critical to her efforts to win the state, perhaps prodding them to ratchet up their fundraising efforts on her behalf.
On the other hand, Vilsack is her national campaign co-chair, so the meeting needn't necessarily be purely Iowa-related.
