Hillary Clinton Heading to Iowa
What could it possibly mean?
Hillary Rodham Clinton will return to Iowa next month for the first time since she lost the 2008 presidential caucuses and appear at an event honoring retiring Sen. Tom Harkin.
Clinton and former president Bill Clinton will appear Sept. 14 at Harkin's annual Steak Fry, according to their spokesmen and a Democratic source with knowledge of the event details. The Steak Fry — an Iowa political highlight for 37 years — will also feature Rep. Bruce Braley, the Democratic nominee for Harkin's seat, and all of the party's candidates for office.
The Iowa appearance comes as Hillary Clinton considers making another presidential bid. She finished third in Iowa's 2008 Democratic caucuses, behind eventual nominee and president Barack Obama and John Edwards.

"Considers"... huh... interesting word choice for an event that is obviously inevitable.
Can't the counter campaigns start before someone launches their own pro-campaign?
Who "fries" a steak? I mean really!
