So do we really have a shot against Branstad?

[daschess1987]

Bewilderingly, it seemed as if he had become popular over the years. Then he got some bad press, and we got encouragement. Let the stories continue and GOTV.

1. Do Iowans really accept the double dipping?

2. He will have another term if we don't work hard.

If we take an attitude of fuck it he can't be defeated so why try Braindead will have another term.

If we relax and think that it'll be a cakewalk Braindead will have another term.

If we stay home and don't vote Braindead will have another term.

We have to get out and vote to replace that no good, four flushing SOB come November, and have to press the state party hard to not toss in the towel until the last vote is counted.

3. Welcome to DU and yes, I believe we have a chance

logic tells me that Branstad is deeply involved in the employee firing scandal. I think that may be one mile too far for many Iowans.
I heard republicans on Iowa press saying what a bad candidate Jack Hatch was. This tells me they fear Hatch quite a bit.

In toto - yeah I think Hatch can win and retire Branstad.
Then I hope Branstad has to stand for what he did in office.
