Leach is pretty much a fiscal conservative and social liberal. People will likely remember him for holding Clinton's feet to the fire. For any other faults he may have, it seems character matters very much to Jim Leach.
We in the 2nd District could do a lot worse, especially considering communist Iowa City and blue-collar Cedar Rapids. I will be pleasantly surprised if a Dem doesn't win his seat when he retires.
Think GABLE!!!
