Mitt Romney waded into the crowded Iowa Senate race Wednesday, throwing his support behind state Sen. Joni Ernst (R) in the contested GOP primary.

"As a mother, soldier and proven conservative, Joni has the kind of experience, skillset and discipline it will take to not only win this important seat, but to also take Iowa values to help turn around the mess in Washington," Romney wrote in a fundraising e-mail sent Wednesday morning...

This is not Romney's first endorsement of the 2014 cycle. He is also backing Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho), who faces tea party challenger Bryan Smith (R).

I heard Joni speak last year. She seems ok. Need to hear more.
Having Romney back her however is not a plus for me!

Thanks for this heads-up on the evil workings of the Obsolete RINO Wing of the Republican Party.

Romneycare Romney has done enough Socialist damage with his cancerous Romneycare, and his carefully planned loss to Commie Soetoro-Obama.

Keep us posted on other destructive Obsolete RINOs who sully the good name of the Republican Party.
