Today's caucus date leapfrog activity is reflecting rising tempers on the pro- and anti-Iowa fronts.
The Miami Herald reports that two days before the Democratic National Committee meets to consider Florida's too-early date, Sen. Bill Nelson and four U.S. House members sent a letter to DNC chair Howard Dean threatening a voting rights lawsuit if the DNC follows through with its own rules and strips Florida of delegates.
Meanwhile, closer to home, former congressman Dave Nagle published a must-read post on his Des Moines Register blog titled "The Edwards Betrayal" that takes the candidate to task for his statement yesterday: "My job is not to make the rules, my job is to run." Nagle, who chaired the Iowa Democratic Party in the 1980s, also criticized former governor Tom Vilsack and fellow former IDP chairs Roxanne Conlin and Rob Tully for not defending the caucuses fiercely enough.
And Kos cheers on Michigan. His lede:
"The Michigan Senate passed yesterday a bill moving up its primaries to Jan. 15, getting one step closer to really screwing Iowa."
