Joni Ernst for President 2016 Giving state of the union response

http://www.kmaland.com/news/ernst-selected-to-give-gop-state-of-the-union-response/article_00cd82fc-9cf8-11e4-b902-bfff7cd2cbd4.html

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio announced Thursday that Ernst will deliver the Republican response to President Obama's State of the Union address on Tuesday. The announcement comes a little more than a week after Ernst was sworn into the Republican-controlled Senate, and more than two months after she was elected to succeed Democrat Tom Harkin. In a conference call with reporters earlier this week, Ernst said she believes lawmakers in Washington can work together in a cooperative spirit.

BFD! I tried to elect Roxanne Conlin over Chuckles the clown last time he ran, but apparently it wasn't so important to Iowans to have a lady serve at that time!

I get the strong feeling after her Tea Klan speech I'm not going to want to live in the same state as her.
