Lucky Bill Richardson - he gets the most recent former Democratic president to come to Iowa and campaign for him. No, not Bill Clinton obviously - but President Josiah Bartlet, who served seven seasons in the West Wing. The Des Moines Register reports that Martin Sheen is flying into the state to stump for Richardson, and add some glamour (and Richardson is the closest candidate in the race to Matt Santos after all).
But President Bartlet won't be alone in Iowa. Former West Wing aide Toby Ziegler - or if you prefer, actor Richard Schiff - is also coming, to campaign for Joe Biden.
No news yet on who former White House deputy chief of staff Josh Lyman is backing.
