2. And Rob has broad support.

In our neighborhood, we've seen yard signs for him in people's yards who have never had political signs in the past. I know people wanted him to run against Grassley a couple years ago but this run for the governorship seems like the perfect time for him.

The last Town Hall that I attended for him was standing room only . When he asked for a show of hands of what political affiliation people were, it was evenly divided among Democrats, Republicans, and Indies. After over a decade of Republican control, Iowans are finally figuring out that things aren't getting better under GOP "leadership".
The only attack ad I've seen from the opposition is pathetic. Slick production, but a weak attack. Rob and his team have been gleefully poking holes in it on social media.
