About me:
For the past 8 years, I've served as the Governor of Iowa -- the first Democrat to hold that office in 30 years. In my time in office, I've strived to make Iowa a stronger community and an even better place to live, work, and raise a family.
We've made healthcare available and more affordable for Iowa's children. We've become a leader in early childhood education and brought unprecedented economic growth to our state. Iowa’s become a leader in alternative energies with bio-fuel and ethanol production. And through innovation and creativity, we've created a pathway to a brighter future for our state.
In 2008, we have a great opportunity to bring together our nation behind this sense of community -- and I hope to have the opportunity to lead it.

10 of 256MoreWay to give it a go Tom. Just a wrong year and a broken system. I hope someone is wise enough to give you the VP nod. I am a former Iowa, now Colorado resident and I would tell everyone what a great governor you are.
That doesn't mean he can't get out there and share his ideas, and be active in the race.
That's everyone's problem these days . . . they sit around, whine, and complain, but never get out to make their voice heard.
Haven't heard much from you latley. Get out there and mix it up! We need more than just the same two voices in the race.
Thats because he dropped out smart one. Its a money war and Vilsack just ain't got the funds.

I think its really sad that in a race with so many great candidates money might end up being the deciding factor. I live in orion il, right across the river from davenport, and i admit that i am a avid obama supporter. That said i liked many of your ideas and wished that more people like you had a chance at president. No consolation, but you deserved a shot at letting your voice be heard.
say it isn't so!!!!!!
"The “War on Toms” Was About Friends and Only Friends"
A week has passed since Tom Vilsack dropped his presidential bid. This coupled with an ice storm and subsequent loss of power has helped me come to realize that I need to end the My Space “War on Toms.”

My whole family was really cheering for you...isn't it sad that MONEY has to be a factor in who gets elected to the presidency and not who is the best man for the job? You would have made a GREAT president Mr. Vilsack!
hey someone just messaged me and congradulated me on being your number 1 friend!
sorry to hear about your campaign!
but be sure i will continue to spread the word about you and the positions you hold!
good luck in the future!
No Tom, don't leave the campaign!
Democrats seem to be getting dumber and dumber now-a-days...our three front runners (Clinton, Edwards, and Obama) are pathetic and none of them will be elected in a general election.
It's sad but true that this thing boils down to money...something has to change.
Keep up the good work in Iowa, though, Tom.
