Any word from Sen. Tom Harkin on his choice?

[Armstead]

I know Harkin's endorsement didn't do Howard Dean any good.

But he's an admirable Democrat in the liberal/progressive tradition.

Has he given any indication of he he plans to support this time around?

1. Has said he isn't going to endorse, but...

Harkin has said that he isn't going to endorse anyone because he knows the candidates too well and is friends with all of them. However, Harkin's wife has endorsed Hillary Clinton.

I believe Harkin might have unknowingly made his endorsement in 2006.

Could it be possible that Harkin actually made his endorsement unintentionally at last year's Harkin Steak Fry by inviting Sen. Barack Obama to be the guest speaker?

The 2006 Harkin Steak Fry was Obama's first trip to Iowa and jump started his Presidential campaign by introducing Iowa Democrats to Obama and the rock star status ensued.
