DES MOINES, Iowa - Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden picked up another high profile endorsement on Saturday in Iowa, where the party’s nominating contest kicks off in nine days, after U.S. congresswoman Cindy Axne said she was backing the former vice president.

Axne, a freshman U.S. lawmaker and moderate, is the latest in a slew of big-name endorsements for Biden in Iowa which could have an impact on undecided voters as caucus day nears on Feb. 3. Two former Iowa Democratic governors, Tom Vilsack and Chet Culver, have backed Biden, as has another U.S. House member, congresswoman Abby Finkenauer.

If it’s Biden I would pay big Pay-per-view money to see aTrump and Biden debate. I think it would be historic comedy gold.

I am from Iowa. That’s hardly a high profile endorsement.

Who?

She is a “big-name” endorser apparently. And a “moderate” too. What do you mean you never heard of her (just like me)? :)

a slew of big-name endorsements for Biden

The biggest endorsement is still the Ayatolla Khomeni of Iran

Gosh - a “high power” freshman....gotta love the spins....they must all be getting really dizzy with all the spinning going on...
Great shades of Tommy Roe....
I’m so dizzy my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, LSM, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy

The bar is obviously very low for high profile endorsements when it comes to Quid pro Joe Biden. I bet most Iowans are not even familiar with her. 8>)

No, that was the last time Quid Pro Joe ran. This year's biggest endorsement is General Soleimani, or, as one of the local talkers calls him "General Salami". Really "blew up" his street cred in Iowa.

She represents Des Moines and suburbs, Iowa’s largest metro area by far. Oddly, Des Moines is more likely Bernie or Warren country. Bid en’s hoping for the old people turnout.

How many people in Congress does Iowa have? Biden just got an endorsement from one of them.

The Criminal bitch who handily lost the last election got Loads of endorsments too.
Too bad the Dept of Justice was neutered years ago. Worthless bunch of crappola they be, or Mrs. Pantsuit would already be doing serious time along with her rapist hubby.
Is the entire justice dept stoopid or criminal too?
