DES MOINES (*******) - Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton may have shot herself in the foot trying to get Iowa voters to pledge support to her -- she is encouraging them to go caucus on January 14, 11 days too late.
cards that said "Yes! I'm an Iowan for Hillary" with their contact information as well as other supportive friends.
One small problem. In the upper right-hand corner of the card, it says "I, _____, pledge to support Hillary Clinton at my precinct caucus on January 14, 2008."
Unfortunately, that's 11 days too late. The Iowa caucuses are January 3 and organization is key to getting voters to go to the events and support their preferred candidate.

Iowa has a town named late? :D

Sounds like a mistake to me (how ironic).

I wish they would leave Iowa alone. Do they play as many commercials in your guys' states as they do Iowa? Sometimes they will play 4 or 5 campaign ads in a row during one set of commercials.

It's annoying.
