Senator Harkin's Re-election

It is getting closer to re-election time for Senator Harkin. He is searching for supporters and has found veterans of foreign wars in his favor. Harkin recently launched his first television ad of the campaign. As a strong supporter of the veterans and armed forces, it is no surprise that the VFW-PAC (Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States Political Action Committee) have chosen to support Harkin in the upcoming election. A jet pilot for five years in the 1960's, Harkin says he is "honored to receive the endorsement". With a very short time before the election, it will be interesting to see how this support helps Harkin and if re-election is evident.

I think that people who have served in the military of anything like that always have an upper hand. Without a doubt they get all those supporters without trying to sway them. I think that this will help him a lot in the polls when that comes around.
