New Polls Show Trouble For Steve King In Iowa

Two new polls show Democrat Christie Vilsack closing in on GOP Rep. Steve King in Iowa where Democrats have made unseating the outspoken tea party congressman a top priority, as TPM reported Thursday.

A new survey from Public Policy Polling Thursday shows Vilsack down just three points to King, 45 percent to 48 percent, respectively. And an internal poll conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research backed up PPP's findings, with Vilsack 44 percent to King's 46 percent.

1. That is great news

2. It's just sad when being stupid is a plus for the candidate and he wears it like a badge of honor

It's interesting how that mindset has developed among fundamentalists.

3. I'd really love to see King unseated.

He's on my list of 'House Republicans I would most like to see lose their seats', along with Ryan, Bachmann, West, Cantor, Issa, Walsh, and several others. I'm really hoping for some big upsets (in the Dems' favor, of course) on election day!

7. Ditto. End.

4. Oh, please let this be true. I have the misfortune of having listened to this guy.

The wannabe Limbaughs on WNAX in Yankton, SD, have this clown on their show all the time. He is the very caricature of a Tea Partier. Northwest Iowa is better than him.

5. It couldn't happen to a nicer guy!

Steve King (R-Insane).

6. I recently drove through the heart of King's base and saw a LOT more Vilsack signs than I did just

three weeks ago. In fact I saw them in places I had never seen Dem signs before. It was heartening.

For the first time in many years, I'm cautiously optimistic.

10. Getting rid of King and Bachmann would fumigate

the entire upper midwest.

Wonderful news. Let's send the unholy trinity of Bachmann, King and West packing.
