Grassley is a GOP Senator. Therefore, one knows:

1. He is a Sociopath.
2. He is an Egoist.
3. He loves Power more than anything else in life.

Surely, no elderly Democrat would ever cling to Power far too long in to their Dotage (Feinstien... cough cough...).

That said, whoever "Joan" is can fuck right off with her Term Limits BS.
