Cedar Rapids Gazette on GOP Senatorial candidate Bill Salier

[ahbappy85.2]

Anyway, I’d love to see some e-mails from all of you who visit my site. Comments, and especially criticism, are welcome.

Here’s hoping that CC keeps growing.

P.S. Earlier I griped about the Bush Administration decision to not allow pilots to carry firearms. Mr. Schamp has an interesting blog about this on his website (link above or to the right.)

MAKING IOWANS PROUD

Who was that on Fox and Friends this morning defending President Bush shop and smacking the Democrats for their cowardice? Why, it was Iowa’s own Senator Charles Grassley! Unfortunately, I can’t find the interview on the FoxNews website. I’ll keep looking though. It is a classic example of why Grassley is easily Iowa’s finest politician.

COULD MAKE IOWANS PROUD

While I’m currently praising politicians, I should note this piece in the . I’ve met Salier only once, last year. He seemed like a very affable man. The article indicated that he continues to improve as a campaigner. I’ll repeat what I wrote in an earlier blog: I hope he uses this race as a springboard to run for office down the road.

COULD ALSO MAKE IOWANS PROUD

Boy, three in a row! I must be in a nice mood, even though the website was down this morning. Anyway, lost in the Gross-Sukup feud is a very good candidate for the GOP nomination for Governor, Bob Vander Plaats. I met him twice last year. He was friendly and easy-going, although a little awkward on the stump. I’ve heard that he has improved tremendously in recent months. Listening to his recent radio interviews seems to confirm it. Unfortunately, he trails both Gross and Sukup in the polls by a considerable amount. Nevertheless, there is a good write-up about him in the Quad City Times. What I recommended for Salier goes double for Vander Plaats.
