This is an individual with a RESUME which would standup to ANY sitting U.S. SENATOR at this time, PERIOD. Being from the northwest part of the state is icing on the cake. (could finally help to break the Republican strangle hold on northwest IOWA). His only limitation would be old, white, male. That may hurt in polk county, but will WIN in Sioux County as well as thru out conservative parts of IOWA. After all, The admiral would be up against Sen. Ernst!
