DISQUS

Wow. I think Steve King has really went over the deep end. Far be it for the media to be critical of him. Soft skin like this is really demoralizing, I dont know how he is going to live this one down.

Calling someone a racist is serious business. When several western Iowa newspapermen huddle up and call a U.S. Congressman a racist over and over again, they shouldn't be surprised when he tells them to shove it.

King is a Race baiter. Iowans would be wise to rid this embarrassing scumbag from office.

I completely agree Steel Medic.

Plus, King can't say some of the things he says and not expect people to call him racist.

Peggy,
To put things in perspective, in these last 8 months since the Iowa Caucus Senator Barack Obama has been called every name in the book, from rascist to sexist to muslim extremist and yet he does not shy away from interviews and debates. Steve King has shown a cowardice that is not suitable for any man, much less a leader of men, and that sin is unforgiveble

Steve King has made MANY racist remarks and now that they have come back to bite him, he turns coward and runs away. He will most likely win the Fifth district even if drops off the face of the earth, but Hubler is going to make this race a margin of single digits when it should be 25+%. And Republicans arent happy that there major base of support (The Fifth) is being lead by the most unpopular man in Iowa.

King has aspirations for the governorship or a senate seat in 2010, but he has now made it a pipe dream, he will be lucky if he is not challenged for the party ticket to his own seat in 2010 by Christopher Rants or another one of the prominent Republicans in the Fifth... That is if he can hold on to his seat until then.
