Christie Vilsack Considering Run For Senate Against Grassley
Former Iowa First Lady Christie Vilsack, wife of former Gov. Tom Vilsack, now says she's considering a run for Senate in 2010 against Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley.

"I think I'm qualified to serve, so time will tell." Vilsack told WHO-TV, the central Iowa NBC station.

"You know, I've spent the last 12 years traveling around the state, developing a relationship with the people of Iowa," she explained, "and I just really appreciate the fact that people have been so supportive in suggesting this. But, as I said, time will tell."

I hope somebody decent runs against him. If she has enough backing and supporters to do it, I say go for it.

I'd vote for the Keebler Elf over Assley.

3. The Keebler Elf is busy giving the Treasury to his Federal Reserve buddies.
And we don't need another useless fake "democrat" in the Senate. DLC. MonSatan. VilSuck. No thanks!

4. I'm hoping for Roxanne Conlin to run against Grassley, not Christie Vilsack.
