Bachmann boosting staff, time in Iowa

Nov. 14, 2011 6:55 am
A busy week ahead on the Iowa caucus campaign trail.
Starting today, five of the candidates will be in-state stumping for votes. In addition to the usual appetite for Pizza Ranch, Newt Gingrich and Michele Bachmann seem to be working up a thirst. Bachmann will make a stop at McCarthy & Bailey's Irish Pub in Sioux City while Gingrich screens his movie, “A City Upon a Hill,” at a Carroll winery.
Rick Perry also is in Iowa today to headline the Scott County GOP Ronald Reagan Dinner at 6:30 p.m. at 2021 State St., Bettendorf.
Rumor has it the Texas governor had three stops planned, but – oh, never mind.
