"IA-Sen: 'Old-school, farming, labor Democrat' Dave Muhlbauer is in"
- Bleeding Heartland, 05/24
John,
Dave Muhlbauer is a different kind of candidate for U.S. Senate.
He's a 5th generation, farming, labor Democrat from western Iowa. He raises hogs and cattle. He grows corn, beans, and alfalfa.
So it probably won't shock you that prior to announcing his run for U.S Senate, Dave had about as many hogs and cattle on his farm as he did Twitter and Facebook followers.
But then something happened. Folks like you watched his announcement video, shared it with your friends, and chipped in to get this grassroots campaign off the ground.
In less than 24 hours, Dave's launch video has been watched more than 209,000 times on Twitter. Dave's campaign has generated headlines all across Iowa and the country. There is no doubt this campaign has momentum right now.
John, we have a real shot here to send someone to Washington who will fight for working families who Republican politicians like Chuck Grassley leave behind, forget about, or just plain ignore. If you believe it's time to send an old-school, farming, labor Democrat like Dave Muhlbauer to the U.S. Senate, chip in $5 or more right now.

Flipping this battleground U.S. Senate seat is doable but it won't be easy.
Chuck Grassley has been in office for more than four decades. He has deep, long-standing connections to special interests. Heck, in the last five years alone he's taken $2,772,480 from corporate PACs.
And Grassley currently has more than $10 million in his campaign bank account.
But as a family farmer, Dave knows what's possible when folks come together to help each other out -- to have each other's backs when the going gets tough.
He believes that folks like you, who've had it with the politicians who leave working folks high and dry, will be the difference in this race.
John, what do you say? Will you chip $5 or more to the different kind of candidate we need to defeat Chuck Grassley right now?
Let's get to work,
Muhlbauer for Iowa
