Spike,
Republicans are not represented in Iowa. The GOP has turned into a quagmire of Christian Right Wing Nut Jobs forcing their agendas on us like we don't know what we want or were raised without religion or values.
It all started when Steve Scheffler, the alleged defrocked insurance man and you know what that usually means - sticky fingers, got into bed with Kim Lehman and her band of undocumented nut jobs. It has been written about and no one has the guts to stand up and stop this crap.
Kim Lehman stands in this mix with huge conflicts of interest right up to her eyeballs. Her house of cards, aka Iowa Right to Life, is registered as a 501c4 IRS Non Profit by Kimberli K Pitts that is forbidden by Federal law to attempt to influence elections. However,
Lehman has persisted doing this.
Christian values have nothing to do with Republican politics when it is shoveled into an agenda item like it has. The GOP will never win another election if these people including Scheffler and Lehman, and their personal agendas aren't removed from office.
It was written, “If Steve Scheffler isn’t one of your first three visits when you come to Iowa, you’re already beaten,” Chuck Laudner, a spokesman for the Iowa GOP, told Religion News Service in April."
My take on this sounds more like Steve will be one of the first 3 the Feds will visit when they come knocking on doors. And Kim Lehman will be number two.

Things are such a blur right now.... I think it can't get any more pathetically stupid than it has, but it does, everyday.
I feel like Rush Limbaugh with a new unseen, porn video of Nancy Pelosi.
Obama just said we need to increase the jumbo SBA loan limits. But no banks are making any loans. Heland is handing out free money without regard and sits mesmerized by his largeness.
And then there is the White House's Kill Fox, Eat Beck. Meanwhile, Afghanistan sits while Obama makes a campaign sweep to raise millions oblivious to his duty.
Only a great country can endure this.
But the people need to raise hell starting today with their elected officials and then hold these people accountable with their vote. And that vote starts in November with the council election.
It's not about whether or not Democrats or Republicans are crooked. People are crooked. It just happens to be whatever party gets caught.
It's time to stop it. Fix it and move on.
