Attention, junkies -- staff notes!

Last week Ben Smith reported that Chris Dodd's campaign was getting ready to shift some staff and resources into Iowa in preparation for the long march to the caucuses.

Now a source in Dodd's camp tells me the specifics of this move have been decided on. The campaign is set to announce that the current national field director, Julie Andreeff Jensen, has been transfered into Iowa and will be named the new state director. Jensen ran Iowa for Kerry in 2004.

The source also says that 17 staffers will also be transfered into field positions in Iowa from New Hampshire and from Dodd headquarters in D.C. The source claims there are no layoffs or pay cuts attending this latest move. "We're following through on our strategic decision to shift resources into Iowa," the source says.
