First Look At Daschle's Iowa JJ Speech

According to an aide to Ex-Sen. Tom Daschle (D-SD), Saturday's night speech at the Jefferson-Jackson dinner in Des Moines "will offer a well-deserved critique of the Bush Administration and Republican policies that have hurt our country."

"Tom will also provide specific ideas for a better America -- 'America at its best.'"

Two short excerpts:

"President Bush keeps saying we are turning the corner. The fact is that he has turned so many corners, he is now just turning in circles. This country can't afford to run around in circles anymore."

"More and more Americans have awakened to the fact that this Administration's policies are dead wrong."

Turned so many corners he's turning in circles? Isn't that a Gephardt line?

Bowen, for Corzine's sake, you better get-out-the-vote in Camden County Tuesday....

Vote early, vote often!

Is this speech going to be on C-SPAN?

Daniel, I don't know if it will be C-SPAN or not, but myself, Drew Miller, and Gordon Fischer, all Iowa bloggers, will be live-blogging the event after being invited personally by the Iowa Democratic Party.

My site's link is below, but Drew's site can be reached here and Gordon's can be reached here.
