From the Des Moines Register:
Democrat Barack Obama has sought the advice of top campaign workers in Iowa and has established a seedling support network in this state as he prepares to decide whether to seek the 2008 presidential nomination.
The first-term Illinois senator has surrounded himself with advisers rich in experience in Iowa, the leadoff caucus state.
Obama has vaulted to the top tier among prospective candidates for the Democratic Party's nomination, even as the new star in the party says he has not made up his mind about running.
The Iowa connections of Obama's campaign advisers and the senator's behind-the-scenes inquiry into the Iowa caucuses are hardly an announcement that he is running for president. But they show he is visualizing the presidential campaign process, in the event he decides to run.
I'll be shocked if he doesn't run in 2008. For those unfamiliar with Obama's senate record, he has gotten one bill enacted into law since becoming a US senator last year.
