Chuck Grassley, call your office


Uh oh, Chuckie.

Might want to rethink your stance on Healthcare Reform.

2. I don't think it would be an understatement to say Grassley has motivated the Democrats in the state
to want to kick his ass next year.

That "pull the plug on granny" crap he pushed was quite the motivator.

4. And then to deny outright that he said what he said.
That's not the way decent people do things in Iowa.

We have names for people like that. "Defeated Incumbent" is one.

5. Senator-for-life Grassley? This is gonna get good.
Go Iowa! If you need some help over there across the river to get Grassy out of the Senate, I'll be happy to help out. PM me.

He may be known as “Senator-for-life” Charles Grassley in Iowa, but that doesn’t mean farmers in a number of other states wouldn’t relish the idea of seeing him forced into retirement.

Grassley, who has served in the Senate for 28 years, has seemed unbeatable for most of that time, rolling up impressive victories every six years as Democrats were unable to mount more than token opposition.

But political pundits are beginning to see cracks in his armor following some highly publicized incidents involving the senator in connection with the health care debate and his opposition to Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor.
