From First Read - ** “I-Ran, I-Ran so far away…”:

** “I-Ran, I-Ran so far away…”: The vote on it was held a month ago, but the Lieberman-Kyl amendment declaring the Iranian Revolutionary Guard a terrorist organization is really beginning to catch fire as an issue in the Democratic presidential contest -- and that seems to have the Clinton campaign concerned. How much? Well, consider that Clinton has a direct mail piece in Iowa defending her “yes” vote on it. (She was the only Democratic presidential candidate to vote for it in the Senate.) Nevertheless, Biden yesterday again criticized Clinton for that vote in an interview on "This Week." You'll also recall that just AFTER the vote was held, Sen. Jim Webb (D) criticized all those Democrats (generically, not by name) for supporting the measure. The Clinton camp has spent weeks claiming this was a drummed up non-controversy but since they are spending paid media explaining the vote, it tells us this must be testing badly with some Iowa Dems, either in polling or focus groups or both. By the way, Clinton risks drawing more attention to this vote and this so-called controversy so was the downside must have been MUCH worse than even Obama and Edwards had been trumpeting?
