For an incumbent, King's war chest is less than intimidating (as of the last filing, it's about $250,000). It wouldn't take a huge amount of fundraising for Hubler to become competitive.

This is very welcome news and will help put the IA-05 race on the map. Big upsets happen in big landslide years.

Wow, that's awesome. Hopefully this means the national party is planning on emphasizing this race.

Trippi should be able to help Hubler raise the money he needs to get his message out. If he can do that, King will be toast. People are really sick and tired of being sick and tired of King's embarrassing rhetoric.

King's latest rant that insulted our soldiers in Iraq was the last straw for many. Republicans are ready to put that tired, vindictive, crazy old horse out to pasture.

Go Rob! This is just what he needs to take his campaign to the next level. Even in Iowa 5 they have to be tired of Steve King's antics.
