How much do you guys think his decision was made over not getting the bigger filibuster reforms that he was helping to push?

Also Steve King really fits the Republican electorate of Iowa better then Latham. If King runs I don't see him losing in a primary.

The GOP nomination belongs to Steve King, the only real question is who will be the Democrat to face him.

I really don't think we should take for granted that this Tea Party phenomenon of nominating radical loudmouths over mainstream establishment types will continue. Otherwise, we'll get caught napping in the same situation Republicans were the last two cycles. 

Until it stops happening I think we have to assume it will happen. Also Steve King fits the Republican electorate in Iowa. He probably wouldn't struggle to win.

Anyone think that Tom or Christie Vilsack would run? (espcially Christie)

A statewide Christie Vilsack vs Steve King rematch would be nice to see!
