"I am delighted to receive the support of these key leaders from Scott County," said Sen. Joe Biden.  “Each of them will play an important role in taking our message of rebuilding America’s middle class and offering a real plan for Iraq into the living rooms of voters here in Scott County and the state.”

Ahead of the official endorsement event this evening, the campaign released video clips on YouTube of the officials announcing their support.  In announcing their support, all noted that Sen. Biden is the only candidate with a comprehensive plan to get us out of Iraq without leaving chaos behind and that he has demonstrated leadership on a wide range of issues from energy to education.

“We have problems domestically.  He wants to address them and he wants to get us out of Iraq,” said State Sen. Joe Seng. “I like his sincerity.  I really feel he means what he’s saying and really wants to do what he says.”
