Seems like Ernst's office just quit answering the phones

Last 3 calls - no answer after 20 or so rings.
Not really surprised - her schtick now is to not give any answer she can be held accountable for.

Good luck at her "town halls" Thursday and friday.

she has gotten very adept at ducking questions and she gets a lot of crap about avoiding certain counties.

So in this non-election year after the 'great' GOP victory election she seems to be making a point of hitting Linn, Polk and Johnson county. She may well have hit Scott county also and I missed it. Once she has held public appearances in those nuisance counties she can avoid them until after her next campaign while pointing out that she did indeed step into the den of the hated liberals.

So late Friday afternoon the day before a big game and only has to duck and dodge for an hour - she will do it and polish that turd of a resume.

She wants all to know of her glorious efforts for defense spending but 95% comments are save the ACA.
