After spending a couple days in Eastern Iowa, we thought we'd move on over to Des Moines, the capitol of Iowa, as the caucus drew closer (it's tomorrow!). We were able to meet up with Devon, a wonderful woman and first-class pro-life activist. We headed to Knoxville (population 8,000), about an hour away from Des Moines. The last time I had been to Knoxville, it was June and pretty nice outside. This time, we were greeted by single-digit weather.
Because we were on private property, we were unable to hand out our fliers, so we figured we'd head into the event (the place wasn't heated!!) to try and talk to Hillary. The event started about 20 minutes late, and out came.. the "other" Clinton -- former president Bill Clinton.
Bill talked for a good hour since it was the last event of the night. After the event, we attempted to talk to him not only about Planned Parenthood but also to ask him why he vetoed the partial-birth abortion ban numerous times as president... But, he was able to duck out before we got to him. Lucky him...
Happy caucus-eve, and make sure to check back for more updates tonight!

Bill is the biggest advocate of a Women's right to choose. He is a piece of something, if you know what I mean!
