Romney to the Rescue
With Nussle and Culver all tied up, the Republican Governor’s Association has decided to call up the reserves — all-expenses-paid volunteers — to swarm Iowa and try to make it happen for Jimmy N. The offer came in a letter signed by Governor Romney, the Chairman of the RGA, which went out on Monday.
The Rocky Mountain News had the story on Mitt’s minutemen:
… the RGA offered free airfare and lodging to volunteers willing to campaign for Republicans in Iowa, Maine, Oregon, Illinois, Arkansas and Michigan.
“There are just 30 days to go until one of the most important and challenging election days we have ever faced, and several races for governor are going down to the wire,” the group wrote in an e-mail to supporters.
“The upcoming midterm elections are critical, and some of our targeted governors’ races may end up being the bright spot for Republicans in 2006.”
The bright spot? The RGA must see some black clouds ahead.
Is the Iowa Republican base really so deflated that the party has to reach out of state with hands full of money to muster a fight?
Here’s to making sure Iowa stays dark for Mitt’s minions.
