Republican Party Wants Ethics Board to Check Out Anti-Branstad Fliers

The Republican Party of Iowa Executive Director Jeff Boeyink told me that on Monday he plans to ask the Iowa Ethics and Campaign Disclosure Board to check out the mysterious group behind some fliers harshly criticizing former Governor Terry Branstad. Boeyink told me he has never heard of the group, Iowans for Truth and Honest Government. The group urges Branstad not to run again with unflattering words and phrases about his days in Terrace Hill. Boeyink told me, "The governor is not even a declared candidate." He added, "It shows a lot of people are concerned about his potential candidacy."

What do you think of the flier? Is all fair in "life, love and politics"? Or does this go too far?
