Tom Harkin, the top Democrat in Iowa, tells ABC News that he has serious questions about where Hillary Clinton stands on the issues:
“But some Democrats still have their doubts,” says ABC’s Jonathan Karl. “Some progressives are a little uneasy with Hillary Clinton and is she going to be too hawkish on foreign policy, is she going to be too moderate on economic issues?”
“We’re always nervous about people moving too far to the right,” said Harkin, who Hillary is visiting with in Iowa this weekend. “See, a lot of us believe the center ought to be moved back–that the center has moved too far right.”
Asked Karl, “So where’s Hillary on that?”
“Well, I don’t know,” responded Harkin. “I think this is something that will be developed and we’ll find out when — if when and if she decides to run, you know, what’s her vision for America?”
“So you still have real questions about where she stands on those central issues?”
“I do everybody,” said Harkin.
