No, Uncle Pat, it's what she does with her hands

Former Republican presidential candidate Pat Buchanan doesn’t pop up on cable news much these days, but he did get a platform to discuss his thoughts about yesterday’s midterms on Newsmax Wednesday. And when it came to Senator-elect Joni Ernst in Iowa, Buchanan couldn’t say enough about her “attractiveness.”

Buchanan began by calling Ernst and “enormously attractive figure” and “a gal with a real sense of humor and a fighting spirit.” He added that she “has the same kind of attractiveness that Sarah Palin had at the start and that Michele Bachmann gained in the Iowa caucuses, I mean, being a very attractive, outspoken person, a woman in the GOP full of passion and full of hard-core philosophy.”

Just days ago, outgoing Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) got in hot water for implying that Ernst is “as good-looking at Taylor Swift.”

“I was very offended that Senator Harkin would say that,” Ernst told Fox News of Harkin’s comment. “If my name had been John Ernst attached to my resume, Senator Harkin would not have said those things.”

Make him squeal, Joni.
