Ron DeSantis is taking up for the people who have seen him most in the last six months, with a new ad targeting Nikki Haley.
“Iowa Insults vs Iowa Values” takes the former South Carolina Governor to task for impolitic comments she made in the Granite State that suggest Iowa’s ultimate importance in the presidential nomination process is limited at best.
The ad, framed as the closing argument ahead of next week’s vote, will “air on broadcast and cable television in the Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, and Davenport media markets,” according to the DeSantis campaign.
“You know Iowa starts it. You know that you correct it,” Haley said in New Hampshire, where she is in a competitive second place with Donald Trump.
That kind of language, whether technically correct or not, is a no-no according to the stentorian narrator of the DeSantis spot.
“Haley disparages the caucuses and insults you,” the bass voice booms. “It is Ron DeSantis who embodies and defends Iowa’s values of faith, family, and freedom. He’s tirelessly working to earn your support.”
“Haley’s insult to Iowans paints a stark contrast with her and DeSantis, who shares Iowa values of faith, family, and freedom, has the support of key Iowa conservatives like Kim Reynolds and Bob Vander Plaats, and has visited all 99 counties in the Hawkeye State,” the DeSantis campaign assertED.
With just a week before Iowans caucus on Jan. 15, polling suggests a competitive race between Haley and DeSantis for second place, with Trump at or above 50% in most recent surveys. The best Iowa poll for the Governor, from CBS News last month, showed him 36 points behind Donald Trump, with 22% support.

The main reason Nikki insulted and offended the “Good Citizens Of The Great State of Iowa is because she was too pre-occupied with her knitting, darning of sox, and the typical housekeeping duties expected of a woman.
And America, that is why we dont need a “Skirt” in The White House. I’m sure you all agree I mean when Iran launches all 3 of their Nukes at us why should we wait for President Haley to finish swiffering the White House floors and folding the laundry prior to responding?
Thank you America,

Exactly Earl,
Thats the exact same logic I provided to Mrs. Krabs back when she wanted to be POTUS.

I would have guessed that the real threat to “Iowa Family Values” is the thrice-married, porn star schtupping, serial lying insurrectionist.

No longer virginal, Iowans are Onward Xian Soldiers full body armor, ready to dispense some payback for being abused. And DJT is their knight errant whose sins they have forgiven.

Rhonda, is it really an insult to say Iowa starts it and then New Hampshire corrects it?
Or is it actually just the facts, ma’am?

Rhonda never had any ammo to begin with. Rhonda is where they are because of that Trump endorsement.
And Rhonda has been failing ever since, same as before the Trump endorsement.
Without Trump, Rhonda is just a high heeled fool spouting hateful nonsense on the corner. And Rhonda is indeed without Trump.
How much longer till Casey announces the divorce? Her game seems to be burying Rhonda and trampling their grave such that Casey becomes either some billionaire’s wife or maybe Florida’s next governor if she is unable to find a billionaire sucker while also being able to successfully parlay her skills learned as Rhonda’s property into a successful Gubernatorial campaign, but the key to unlocking victory there is leaving Rhonda in their dust.

I find it surprising that he used what little ammo he had on Haley and not Trump – ya know, the guy who is winning that he has to beat to win the Primaries. I’ve never seen someone work so hard to lose. He must have slept through the strategy vs. tactics classes when he was in the military.

Being the strategery genius that they are, I predict Rhonda will try to put up a”Mission Accomplished” sign behind them to display during their State of Whatever State address tonight.
Only question about is whether anyone involved in Rhonda’s State of Whatever State production crew will feel sorry enough for Rhonda to take the MA sign down before Top Gov’s TV time.
i do hope they still let Rhonda wear his fighter pilot outfit. that scarf!
