This November, all eyes will be focused on the Senate. The Republicans only need to win six seats to take control from the Democratic majority, one of which happens to be in my beautiful home state of Iowa. Unfortunately, the Iowa race also features one of the nation’s most insane candidates: Republican Joni Ernst.

As part of their voter outreach program, the Republican Party unveiled their latest mascot in a series of commercials last week. Meet Scott Greenberg. It’s nice to see the GOP finally focusing on the one demographic they consistently overlook, the heterosexual white male.
Raising Cain
Former GOP presidential hopeful and Libya strategist Herman Cain has come to the realization that the Republican Party may have an issue with race. It wasn’t the series of voting restrictions targeting minorities or the recent tweet from the RNC that declared racism over that bothered Cain, it was the omission of his name on a flier for potential 2016 presidential candidates.
The Day After Tomorrow
No surprise here, but I love discussing politics. This election season has led to some of the most interesting, and at times insane, debates I’ve ever partaken in.
Thanks to the craziness of the modern-day GOP, this is a year that has seen candidates share a Republican primary debate stage who:
- Have claimed Disney’s The Lion King is gay propaganda
- Proudly displayed their lack of knowledge on foreign leaders
- Referred to one of our nation’s allies as “Islamic terrorists”
- Do not believe in evolution
- Warned us of the “dangers of contraception”
- Claimed Satan is attacking America
- Wondered why airplane windows don’t open
You cannot make this shit up.

President Obama displayed a comfortable coolness while discussing last night’s main focus of foreign policy, while at times Mitt Romney looked as if he were diffusing a bomb in a Lethal Weapon film.

The big news today was the announcement that the jobless rate has fallen below 8% for the first time in 8 years.
The latest jobs report has U.S. unemployment at 7.8%, the lowest rate since January 2009.
Face/Off
Pulp Fiction
Does Romney want to win the presidency? It is a valid question after he attempted to use an overseas tragedy for political gain last week and has now insulted and dismissed 47% of the nation’s population.
