Obama to speak at Harkin Steak Fry

From the Des Moines Register...

Iowa Sen. Tom Harkin announced today that Illinois Sen. Barack Obama would be the guest at his annual fund-raiser in Indianola in September.

Obama, an Illinois Democrat, will headline Harkin’s annual steak-fry scheduled for Sept. 17 at the Warren County Fairgrounds, the Iowa Democrat announced.

It would be Obama’s first trip since his election in 2004 to Iowa, where the 2008 Democratic Party precinct caucuses are expected to launch the next presidential nominating cycle.
