the senator from iowa. mr. grassley: mr. president, i know we aren't voting on this nomination today. i think it'll be tomorrow, but i don't think there will be time to make remarks tomorrow, so i am expressing not only my opposition to the nominee being confirmed but also the bigger issuer of whether or not there should be any additional judges put on the d.c. circuit. approximately six months ago, june 4, 2013, the president simultaneously nominated three people for the d.c. circuit. everyone knew then, just as they know now, that these scwudges are -- these judges are not needed. the d.c. circuit has the lowest caseload in the country, by far, based on the standards that the democrats established just a few years ago when a republican was in the white house. in fact, the caseload on the d.c. circuit is so low that on april 10, 2013, approximately two months prior to these nominations, i introduced legislation together with every republican member of the committee to eliminate one seat of the d.c. circuit and move two othe

over the next two years getting ready for the iowa caucuses.'s -- and the real fight probably will begin sometime in the coming year, 2014, 2015 because the iowa caucuses will take place early in 2016. >> so i wonder how many republican governors have been scheduled for iowa for chris christie to get that name recognition as high as it needs to be. i don't want you to answer that question because i want to move on to the democrats, if i can. let me put up a list of how the favorability ratings came in for the democrats. hillary clinton up at 89%. joe biden following in behind at 71%. martin o'malley, 18% and brian schweitzer, 16%. people certainly know hillary clinton and joe biden. do these numbers surprise you in any way, wolf? >> they all like them and -- excuse me. these are self-identified democrats in the poll and they clearly all know hillary clinton and joe biden. most people in iowa, including democrats, don't know much about brian or martin o'malley but they know a lot about hillary clinton and joe biden. so once again, obviously if h

iowa ran are building a nuclear bomb. everyone knows it. and republicans and democrats and the whole world knows that. >> i think what you say is true, if we step away from countries like iraq, we may be so manied like abandoning the cause. iraq kicked us out. that's what iowa ran was. >> iran doesn't want us there. >> iran was building a nuclear weapon before barak obama graced the national stage. >> we know the sanctions hurt the government and they are eased now and iowa ran is continuing to enrich uranium despite the deal it made and sanctions. the president touted that as a win. >> we had sanctions in place and iowa ran continued to do that. we had hard sanctions. i don't think any of us not privy to national security briefings can tell you whether iran is acting in good faith. we have bob men edez who is a democrat and he thinks we are not doing right thing. and netanyahu certainly doesn't. and we can't sit here and make a claim to what the president is doing is right or wrong without being briefed. >> is what he doing right? >> i don

republicans of iowa, it's not for me to give you advice. you're not going with a guy i think is the strongest candidate you could put out there. look, i think traditionally republicans usually tend to nominate the next runner-up. 2000 john mccain came close to the nomination or he won -- didn't win. but came close as a second runner-up to george bush. therefore he was the nominee in two thousand -- down the road. then mitt romney coming close to mccain. he was the nominee last year. i guess paul ryan's next in line. i will say iowa doesn't always tend to go with the winner. michele bachmann in her firwoulr first term of office. >> hillary clinton was way at the top. joe biden placed second on the democratic side of things. in the meantime, the obamacare glitches, they keep oncoming. for the second week in a row now washington state's exchange website offline. there are even reports it's prematurely deducting payments from customers' accounts weeks before it's supposed to happen. as for the federal obamacare site, continuing problems with th

and let's just remember who won iowa during the republican primary before.at was rick santorum. >> right. i think between the two parties, i think the democrats should be a little bit more worried about the fact that they are trailing or at least hillary was trailing by nine percentage points in this poll. that i think is a reverberation from the republicans' continued attacks on obamacare in particular. but i think, you know, as we go forward, you know, the more we learn about chris christie, as he continues to be vetted over the next year and some change by the media, by democrats, the more those poll numbers will start to fluctuate. he will start to slip a little bit at different points. he will start to go up. i think for republicans, they're not surprised that hillary has such a commanding lead among women and they would continue to try to close that gap over time. but let's remember this is iowa and this is where once upon a time michele bachmann was leading in the polls and she's the hometown girl. she was supposed to take iowa. so let's take it with

less than 50% of iowa republicans view him favorably. chris christie doesn't fair that well either with the highest unfavorables among republicans in the entire poll. i guess he's too east coast. on the democratic side, iowa's ready for hillary. nine out of ten democrats view her favorably. that shows who's leading the pack there. we'll be right back. e mail man . i don't leave the shop anymore.

they had this to say about iowa. the mass exodus of republicans fleeing john boehner's house is putting more and more districts into play every day. they said this on virginia. with more irresponsible brinksmanship, no wonder they are choosing to leave congress rather than defend the party's record of failing on jobs. you see the extreme messaging by both on this one. these retirements will have ripple effects, especially in iowa where there is a crowded b list field of senate republican primary candidates. there is no a-list recruit. they struck out there. it does mean that some of the senate candidates might dropout and run for the house seat instead. they live in the lathe am district that includes des moines. it's oddly drawn for iowa. it goes from des moines to the southwest corner of the state. for boehner watcher, it's highly unlikely to speaker boehner gets choiced out of his job. he has a tighter grip over the speakership. now two of boehner's closest personal friends in congress, lathe am and senator chandl
