Of course, as we saw in 2012, one stupid comment can not only cost a seat, but cost seats in other states as well. Hopefully the media in Iowa will let this go pretty soon.
I used to think the media had a bad case of "librul bias." But as I read more into Nixon, and from using my basic God given senses, I have pretty much awakened to the obvious fact about the media: they are bloodsucking contrarians. They won’t let this go unless the Republican says something worse (which can happen, of course). Will this blow the election for Braley? Of course not, but it’s enough to create an opening for the GOP.
