Grassley spells out formula needed for Bush to carry Iowa
Times-Republican Online, Marshalltown
Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, this week laid out the formula needed for the pResident to carry Iowa in November — a massive absentee campaign and a lot of love. . . .
A lot of love?
“Even if he [Bush] does very well nationally, the Democrats have very good organization in Iowa,” Grassley said. “We've got to have a mail-in campaign that just about equals the Democrats. If we do that, then I think we can carry Iowa.”
Sure, if Iowans forget we need jobs, forget the lies told to take us to war, forget the Medicare bill that enriches the big pharmaceutical companies, forget the way the Bush Administration divulged the identity of a deep-cover CIA agent to retaliate against her husband, forget the . . .
“The Democrats have taken an anybody-but-Bush attitude toward defeating him so they get behind anyone without question,” Grassley argued. “There's a great deal of hatred on the part of base Democrats toward Bush.” To offset that, Republicans will need to demonstrate the same amount of love toward Bush that the Democrats have in hatred against him.
Oh, brother.
When asked if Republicans in Iowa were “feeling the love,” Grassley replied, “Not yet, but they have to.”
Just like the neo-cons to force people to “love” their leader. What I'd like to know is just when exactly Grassley was taken over by neo-con pod people?
