Atty. throws his tea-bag into Senate race

http://theiowarepublican.com/2013/matt-whitaker-to-officially-enter-u-s-senate-race-on-june-3/



This will not be Matt Whitaker’s first foray into politics. He ran for state treasurer in 2002. Whitaker also served as the state chairman for Tim Pawlenty and Rick Perry during the 2012 caucus cycle. Despite those ties, Whitaker indicated that he running as an outsider who will be an independent voice in the U.S. Senate, in the mode of Rand Paul and Ted Cruz.



You will do well with the Iowa GOP dumbasses(stolen from 47of74 title).

Thus the primary should be who can out-RW the other - thus pulling the crazy party even further to the crazy.

I would think that would really help Bruce.
