They should do it like real Iowans, and settle it on the mat!

Not so sure Trump nor Pence want Pence as the front man.

Sarah Huckabee does fine taming the jackals.

Correct, and that was the second time Obama did that, he also opened divorce records in a state race.

As someone who practices a lot of domestic relations law, I respectfully disagree. The system is bad as it is. Removing sunlight, the best disinfectant, from it, would make it horrific.

I guess YOU would like ALL of your dirty laundry, along with some LIES about you, to be exposed to the world???? I didn’t think so. Geesh…..WHAT sunlight would help in a divorce?? You would NEVER know if most was true or not!

In 2016 no states split their tickets Pres/Senate. If Trump wins Iowa she’ll win.

I like Pence. Of the choices Trump seemed to be considering, he was easily the best. My only complaint is I think he’s too nice, thank God he’s there as a spare tire but I don’t know about him as a successor.

As for Ernst, sad story. I don’t know if she’d have been selected but it’s sad for her if her version of events is accurate.

We'll see. There may be some candidates that not even the President can save.

There are some, including Richard Baris, who think he’s a bad actor.

I don’t see it. He has said nothing but positive things about every one of Trump’s programs, has been as supportive as any veep. I agree, he’s just too nice to be president. But I pray that his faith continues to shape and inform Trump. As long as Trump has God, and those bible studies are going on, I don’t think anyone or anything can harm him.

He’s Sampson. Don’t lose the hair.

Pence has been an excellent and very loyal VP.

He’s also a phony politician.

You can like him if you want to.

I don’t.

I don’t really care for Republican politicians very much at all.

Opinions? Are Iowans happy with Joni?

She's far, far better than any DemocRAT would be. That might be the nicest thing I can say about her.

When she flew to AZ to stump for Jeff The Flake (during primary season, before he decided to call it quits), that pretty much cemented her place in my mind.

Thanks for that information. I’m off of Joni, too. What a disappointment some of our newest Republicans have turned out to be. :(
