Years. Nussle, a Delaware County Attorney, Is Funding His Campaign, Like Congressman Tauke, with Iowa Money This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu MEMORANDUM ':OOc SENATOR DOLE FR: CHIP GATELY, FUNDRAISING OlRECTOR RE: CURRENT LAY OF 'l'HE LANO IN IOWA POLITICS OT: 8 AUGUST 1990 The following is information related to the Iowa political landscape and included are s.ome clips of the first Tauke-Harkin debate as well. 1. Republican Party of Iowa. RPI has raised more money than the Democrats in Iowa and have the best staff in over 10 years under Rich Schwarm, State GOP Chairman. The Tau.ke campaiqn is currently helping the Party raise money by havinq the PACs who've "maxed out" to Congressman Tauke 1 s campaign contribute to the State. The Democrats are beginninq to get big checks in the $20,000 to $50,000 range from PACs that are closely tied to Harkin (like Occidental Petroleum).. We suspect that we will need to pump even more money into the state party than oriqinally planned. 2. Branstad/Avenson Campaiqn. Incumbent Republican Governor Terry Branstad has maintained a comfortable 11 point lead over State Speaker Don Avenson according to the latest Des MOines Register poll ( B/5/90). This poll shows that Avenson has only picked up one point since the last poll. At this point it looks that Iowa might see only the second Governor in its history to serve for the maximum of 12 years (Governor Robert Ray was the first). On the downside, however, the Governor has fallen below 50% support in the most recent Regi.ster poll. With over $1. 3 million in the bank, and Roger Ailes standing by, the GOvernor seems in good pqsition. J. 2nd Congressional Race. Republican Jim Nussle of Dubuque is running against Eric Tabor for Congressman Tauke' s Conqressional seat that Congressman Tauke has held for 11 years. Nussle, a Delaware County attorney, is funding his campaign, like Congressman Tauke, with Iowa money. 4. Special Request. The one thing we would like Senator DOle to say, especially with the press, is that Iowa will retain a seat on the Agriculture Committee. ~ - • .

  • Gone Rogue: Time to Reform the Presidential Primary Debates
    Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy Discussion Paper Series #D-67, January 2012 Gone Rogue: Time to Reform the Presidential Primary Debates by Mark McKinnon Shorenstein Center Reidy Fellow, Fall 2011 Political Communications Strategist Vice Chairman Hill+Knowlton Strategies Research Assistant: Sacha Feinman © 2012 President and Fellows of Harvard College. All rights reserved. How would the course of history been altered had P.T. Barnum moderated the famed Lincoln-Douglas debates in 1858? Today’s ultimate showman and on-again, off-again presidential candidate Donald Trump invited the Republican presidential primary contenders to a debate he planned to moderate and broadcast over the Christmas holidays. One of a record 30 such debates and forums held or scheduled between May 2011 and March 2012, this, more than any of the previous debates, had the potential to be an embarrassing debacle. Trump “could do a lot of damage to somebody,” said Karl Rove, the architect of President George W. Bush’s 2000 and 2004 campaigns, in an interview with Greta Van Susteren of Fox News. “And I suspect it’s not going to be to the candidate that he’s leaning towards. This is a man who says himself that he is going to run— potentially run—for the president of the United States starting next May. Why do we have that person moderating a debate?” 1 Sen. John McCain of Arizona, the 2008 Republican nominee for president, also reacted: “I guarantee you, there are too many debates and we have lost the focus on what the candidates’ vision for America is..
