Even though my son is a Democrat, I wouldn’t be surprised if he attends events where the Republican candidates for President appear, if they come to Grinnell. While it would have been really exciting to have been at Grinnell during the last presidential election, I think that he will find it really interesting to be in Iowa in the leadup to the presidential caucuses, even if he’s not interested in the candidates. There was a story in the NY Times about how the “Trek to Iowa” has begun for the Republicans.

I suppose it might be interesting if there were a primary challenge to Obama, at least from the viewpoint of being in Iowa for elections!
