And Clinton jogged too

Eagle Grove is the first stop as The Pickle (Governor Vilsack) begins what he and the media call his final "walk across Iowa".

It's a misnomer, because The Pickle doesn't actually walk across the state.

He rides and then when he gets close, he gets out and walks into town.

He may even walk out of town, but soon afterwards it's back into the vehicle and onto the next walk.

I do believe if he really walked the state, he might be able to cut down on those double chins, belly roll and love handles.

The Pickle is pictured with Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, left, who lost over 100 punds and runs marathons.
