2014 Republican gubernatorial candidate Tom Hoefling today challenged incumbent Governor Terry Branstad to a series of five debates in the run up to the June 3rd primary.

His proposal includes four smaller events hosted and organized by willing county GOP organizations within the four congressional districts, and would culminate in a large venue debate hosted by the state party. Any proceeds would be split proportionally between the various party organizations participating, for use in electing local Republicans in November. Moderation would be provided by the state and county party chairmen.

Hoefling said, “I think ‘Building Iowa’s Future,’ which is Terry Branstad’s campaign theme, is the right focus for debate. But I also think that the people of Iowa deserve to hear both candidates in this primary explain fully what they think that future should look like.”

He added, “If Governor Branstad does not find this reasonable, constructive proposal to be acceptable, I am willing to debate any time, anywhere in the state, under any circumstance.”

Truly, that’s great.

I’d love to hear what your agenda is in public office.

America desperately needs new leaders who will fulfill their oath.

“I’d love to hear what your agenda is in public office.”

Basically to be a giant pain in the ass. Lord knows the IL GOP needs one.

Hey, being a thorn in their side is a great place to start. Sometimes that’s all you can do.

If there anyplace that needs a giant political enema, it’s the Illinois GOP, that’s for sure.

Good luck to you.
