The SteelWorkers Union Hall was packed this morning as Edwards supporters gathered to hear their candidate one more time before spending the day calling potential caucus-goers.
The crowd was very energized with chants such as, "We love Elizabeth. We love John. We want to see them on the White House lawn." Then there was, "John loves labor, and labor loves John!"

Edwards' message was brief and enthusiastic. Despite the latest poll numbers, Edwards assured supporters that he would win Iowa and then move on to New Hampshire. He encouraged volunteers to follow the campaign trail to New Hampshire in the coming days.
The press followed Edwards through the room as he quickly shook hands with volunteers and headed back to the campaign bus. His appearance lasted only about 10 minutes, but it seemed to be enough to energize this group.
