Political junkies put focus on Iowa

Peter Rickman is taking his enthusiasm for presidential candidate John Edwards and hunkering down in Iowa until the Jan. 3 caucuses. He left Saturday morning.

“I will be working through caucus night and the victory party,” said the optimistic Rickman, 25, who, besides having a full-time job at a software company, is a master’s degree student at the La Follette School of Public Affairs at UW-Madison.
