At least Palin bailed out early before completing her term as governor. Ernst will be around for while longer. Hopefully Iowans will catch on and not make the same mistake twice.

So we have that to look forward to.

They say 2016 will be better for us, and she'll be one reason why.

How could we Iowans do something so disastrous ? I don't understand. Maybe Bruce Braley wasn't the most dynamic candidate but he is hardworking and trustworthy and...has the right ideals and purpose and I would feel good about him going to the Senate and representing me. I wouldn't have to worry about what his priorities were or how he would conduct himself.

Yes, she (Ernst) so much reminds me of Palin.

I foresee another Michelle Bachman, Sarah Palin type in her where she's a looney and full of herself and thinks this will be a launching pad to something bigger.
