Related: About this forumJoni wants debates with Greenfield
Careful what ya wish for JoniSen. Joni Ernst issued a statement saying that she wants to debate Democratic challenger Theresa Greenfield to six total debates ahead of Novembers general election. The Ernst campaign wants two debates each of three months starting in August.
Greenfields campaign said that she looks forward to debates this fall, but did not specifically respond to whether or not they agreed to the six proposed by Ernst.

"And thats not what Iowans expect in a leader."
Her comment for the video from Ernst facebook page asking for debates.
Ernst sees the world through a toilet paper tube to never see anything she doesn't want to know about and never pulls her head out of trumps ass.
