Here's some video from the rally in Indianola this afternoon. Every event I've been to on the Caucus for Results Tour has been packed, and today in Indianola was no different. Please excuse the poor sound quality in the beginning of the video--Jackie Dodd delivered an excellent but very quiet introduction to her husband's speech.
Look out for more video tomorrow as Matt and I cover Caucus Day events in Des Moines.

This evening Senator Dodd spoke to a big crowd packed into the Blue Strawberry in Cedar Rapids. The temperatures were in single digits outside, but the crowd was fired up to hear Chris Dodd speak about why he's running for President and the burden that rests with Iowa's caucus-going Democrats to help shape the future of our country with their selection Thursday night.
Senator Dodd was introduced first by IAFF President Harold Schaitberger and his wife, Jackie.

The Caucus for Results tour stopped in to the Steamboat Gardens in Waterloo last night. It a huge, energetic crowd came out to support Senator Dodd. Almost 350 people packed into the restaurant to hear Chris Dodd talk about why his experience getting results by standing on principle and his proven record of being a force for change in America makes him the best candidate for Iowa to stand with in the caucuses this coming Thursday.
This was either my third or fourth stop at Steamboat Gardens, which is easily one of my favorite restaurants slash campaign rally sites in Iowa. Seriously - the pork tenderloin sandwich there is as good as it gets!
Megan and I will be providing coverage from events in Davenport, Cedar Rapids, and Marshalltown today. Stay tuned for more updates and don't forget to find your caucus location if you're reading this in Iowa.
