Apparently it’s customary for political speakers at events to rally the faithful for the first caucus to think of Iowa as a place to secure votes, not cash. In fact, some say the scramble by the Iowa Family Center’s newly formed “Team
Sarah” to scratch up her (now) regular speaking price of $100,000 is not only odd but unheard-of. She is busy that week, with the launch of the book attributed to her, but it sounds as if she’ll be able to squeeze Iowa in if they tempt
her with enough green to make it worth her while.
