In this morning’s Hibbing Daily Tribune was the following above-the-fold, top banner headline, with picture of visiting voters and 11-month old “Babies for Barack” caucus leader:
Opama opens Hibbing office
DFLers, veterans rally to Barack cause
Check out the story and photos of what certainly seems to be a successful opening of the second Iron Range headquarters for Barack Obama. Taken with the DFL’s coordinated campaign, this is the most intense investment in field organization on the Iron Range that I’ve seen in the modern campaign era. Now the DFL just needs local people to step up and get the job done.
(Disclosure: I write a Sunday column for the Hibbing Daily Tribune and am a former editor. That said this is not an organization with a strong political ideology in its news selection and I certainly wasn’t involved in this choice.)
