Sen. Evan Bayh at the Iowa State Fair    ...2 of 5 >>
August 14, 2006--State Sen. Dick Dearden (D-34) joined Sen. Evan Bayh (D-IN) as he walked through the State Fair.  Dearden, whose district includes the Fairgrounds, has not thrown his support to any of the 2008 prospects; in the 2004 Iowa caucus campaign he supported Rep. Dick Gephardt (D-MO).  (Below) After waiting in line, Sen. Bayh made it to see the butter cow, now sculpted by Sarah Pratt of Norwalk.  This year in addition to a Jersey cow, Pratt also produced sculptures of actor and Norwalk native Brandon Routh as Superman and of Bill Riley, founder of Iowa State Fair Talent Search.
