Des Moines Register Disses Conlin, Finds Her “Not Knowledgeable”

 

Roxanne Conlin has name recognition, has raised the most money and is an accomplished attorney. She is engaging, dynamic, driven and clearly smart. But we were surprised and disappointed she was not knowledgeable about and so oversimplified the details of important policy.

 

And she tends to come across as indecisive, most recently when she said during a debate she favored taxing all wages to fund Social Security - then off camera said she didn't support that.

Bob Krause has a wealth of professional experience in transportation and a passion for veterans' health care. He's cordial, but seems ill-prepared to tackle complicated issues.

Tom Fiegen is a bankruptcy attorney with a compelling personal story and friendly demeanor. But he also came across as unnecessarily argumentative by insisting on keeping his notes in a candidate debate in violation of established rules - though he finally backed down.

 

Iowa Democrats have to choose one of these three. They should reward Fiegen, 51, for preparing best to thoughtfully tackle issues.”
