Looks like we have a strong group running for Congress

Dave Loebsack of course. He is not taking his opponent lightly. Let us hope his campaign will set the stage for a great turnout this fall in Iowa.

Monica Vernon in the first district. Rod Blum is very vulnerable. Vernon's run for the Lt. Gov. with Jack Hatch got her around the state. With most people that meet Ms. Vernon they are taken by her warmth and knowledge. She is amazing. I know I was a fan right away when I met her.

Jim Mowrer in the 3rd district. Mowrer has a great story and an opponent that seems to be a puppet. Young's distinguishing mark so far is being embarrassingly forced to change his vote on a bill that included an LGBT amendment that pissed off the leadership.

Kim Weaver in the 4th district. Tough row to hoe here against Steve King. As the awareness of what shit heads Republicans are in general maybe the 4th will finally wake up to King.

Let's do all we can to tie the repugs to Trump and the do-nothing congress.

1. I'm surprised Mower won in the 3rd.

Sherzan seemed to be on top of his game.

As a whole, I think we can expect some help from GOP voters staying home because of The Donald.

2. just thinking that an appearance by Warren, Sanders even maybe Clinton

could really boost a Judge or a Vernon or possibly Mowrer.
I am really believing this year.

3. Iowa Democrats should continue the Harkin Steak Fry for that appearance.

Nothing like a hillside full of Democrats to make me smile.

4. Indeed

Yeah, I'm hoping Vernon can unseat Blum. And we in the First get a voice back in the House.

And come January we have Senator Patty Judge instead of Senator Bowel Obstruction.
