Retiring Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) gave a ringing endorsement to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s presidential ambitions.

“Most people think that she is a moderate, kind of middle-of-the-road type of politician,” Harkin said. “This is way off the mark. She is much farther to the left and a lot more progressive in her thoughts and her inclination than most people may think. That’s why she has my unconditional support should she choose to run for president in 2016.”

LOL. So much for Hillary! positioning herself as the moderate in the race and distancing herself from Obama's liberalism.

That guy in the brown shirt doesn’t seem to approve of Tommy playing with Hillary’s hair. It is weird.

That guy in the brown shirt is Hillary’s hairdresser

He came back from Cuba this year touting how great the regime was and how happy the people are.

Why would Hillary want the endorsement of someone capable of such stupidity?

” Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) gave a ringing endorsement to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s presidential ambitions.”

Only because Karl Marx wasn’t available to run.

Dang you semi news, just read the headline not the byline and article.

The guy is ready for his steak and some fat-ass in holding up the line, mugging for the camera.

The guy in the brown shirt resembles a "fake-folksy-dressed" version of a Harkin staffer at an event I involuntarily attended a few years ago. I wonder if it really is the same guy...

I know this is piece is satire, but if if he thought it would be of benefit to him personally, Tom Harkin would say it.

Harkin is a lying wannabe Vietnam Vet POS...claimed to having flown into Vietnam from Japan.....never did...on par with the traitor skerry....dumbcrat lying weasels....

Harkin wanted to get his endorsement in before McPain and Graham beat him to the punch.
