Iowa True Blue was written by Gordon Fischer. Gordon was chair of the third district Democrats back when I was chair of the Benton County Democrats (he was my boss.) He went on to be State Chair and, by all accounts, did a great job.
Gordon stopped writing his blog a year ago. He was an early supporter of Obama and it may be hard to remember but a year ago tensions between the Obama and Clinton camps were running high. Gordon wrote about Bill Clinton staining his reputation like a blue dress he had also stained.
Following the media storm Gordon stopped blogging regularly and closed up shop completely after the election.
When I set up my blog I asked Gordon if it bothered him if I well, plagiarized, his blog title. He assured me he wasn't offended.
It's unfortunate that Gordon has stopped blogging. Most Iowa bloggers are to the right of Rush Limbaugh and Steve King. Gordon's a funny guy and his contributions are missed.
Steve - Interesting story! I would have had no clue. I also didn't know you were the Chair of Benton County Democrats. I want more dirt on that!
ReplyDeleteI am surprised you haven't already heard that the racist Steve King is thinking about running for Governor!!!! (please remember Dottie654 and Peachie are the same person)
ReplyDeleteKarey - The blue dress was Monica's...
ReplyDeletePeachie - I have heard that Steve King might run for governor. I don't want to jinx it. Please, Steve, run.
