This is what Drew Cline of the Manchester Untion Leader in New Hampshire wrote on this blog on Friday:"I was chatting with an extremely well-informed Iowa journalist yesterday, and he had an interesting take on what surprises we might see in Iowa in the next month. He thinks there's a remote but real possibility that Joe Biden could see a surge in support and shock a lot of people with a very good showing in the caucuses. Biden and Bill Richardson are taking turns in fourth and fifth place in Iowa polls. But there's a lot of respect for Biden in Iowa, I was told, and he ends up being the second choice of a lot of Democrats who don't want Clinton to be the nominee. It's a long shot, but Biden has been campaigning a ton in Iowa lately, and he's started to move up in the polls. This journalist thinks Biden could take third place -- or even better by Jan. 3."Other candidates have already spent millions of dollars in Iowa, but their campaigns are stalling. We haven't even started our final media push yet, but it seems everyone's talking about a "Biden surprise."With your help, we can do this. We need to raise $700,000 (which will become $1.4 million through matching funds) to run our our TV ads across Iowa in the final days of this race. And we'll give a sneak preview of these ads to anyone who makes a contribution to the campaign this weekend -- no matter what amount.There are 25 days left until the voting starts. Every contribution makes an impact. Please act today.Thanks,Joe Biden
