Edwards Stakes Campaign On Iowa At The Risk Of NH
Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards is staking his campaign on winning Iowa's first-in-the-nation caucus, even at the cost of stinting on the next big test in New Hampshire.
Edwards yesterday began a bus tour that will snake through Iowa's cities and towns for seven days -- just a week after a two-day swing -- packed with stops that will let him exploit his down-home style to win over Iowans. He has campaigned here more than twice as much as he has in New Hampshire, where his folksy demeanor does not seem to connect as well with flinty New Englanders.
