Aide: Conlin (D-Ia) running for Senate
Source: Omaha World Herald-AP

By MIKE GLOVER AP Political Writer

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) An aide said Friday that lawyer Roxanne Conlin intends to seek the Democratic nomination for Senate in 2010 and the right to oppose Republican Sen. Charles Grassley, who is seeking a sixth Senate term.

Mark Daley, a senior adviser to Conlin, said Conlin will announce next week she's entering the Senate race.

The 65-year-old Conlin was the Democratic gubernatorial nominee in 1982 and has served as the Iowa Democratic Party chairwoman. She was a U.S. attorney in the 1970s and was the first woman elected president of the National Trial Lawyers Association.

Conlin said last month that she was considering running for Senate, and Daley said she had made the decision to do so.

4. What a strange state is Iowa...
One of only two states to never elect a female Governor or send a woman to congress.

The other state - Mississippi.

Go figure.

Nicely quietly progressive Iowa! Maybe I'll move back to Clinton, IA, in my retirement!
