Right Wing Watch: Steve King edition: 'Screechy' Hillary Clinton Won't Play Well In Iowa

Rep. Steve King thinks that if Hillary Clinton decides to run for president, her “fingernails on the chalkboard” voice will make her vulnerable in the Iowa caucuses.

The Iowa Republican told Steve Malzberg today that there is a “lack of excitement” for a Clinton candidacy and that the former secretary of state’s fellow Democrats should challenge her because her “screechy voice” will “play over and over again in Iowa.”

I gotta admit: The one thing that makes me less opposed to Hillary, is the fuckwad repubs.
