Low 55 from flood mitigation to the iran nuclear deal, candidates for iowas first congressiona l district talked tough with less than two weeks until election day. As kcrgtv9s Forrest Saunders shows us, republican rod blum and democrat Monica Vernon made the most of last nights first and only debate seen on kcrg 9. 2 trading shots from the start. Vernon and blum each fired a few shots at one another from their podiums, wednesday night. Claimed blum was playing the blame game in dc when it came to federal funding for cedar rapids flood mitigation. To me, and a lot of other hard working people out here, it just sounds like a lot of finger pointing. Blum shot back reminding the audience how long it took for federal dollars to get approval, pointing a finger at vernon. It took you Monica Vernon and the City Council Six years. Thats not exactly overnight. Later, vernon went after blums voting record, saying he supported a medicare Voucher Program and raising the do those things. I think those are moves that would be very, very destructive. Blum said vernon was stretching the truth. That the vote was for a budget bill, which are often full of thousands of ideas, not necessarily policy. Theyre not legislation. Theyre not laws. They are not binding. Now on the attack, blum hit vernon on her support of the iran nuclear agreement. He called it was a head scratcher that would allow the middle eastern country to become a nuclear power. Vernon called it progress. Its gotten inspectors in there. Theres concrete in the core of that reactor. Its slowed down things. Finally, vernon called out blum for his continued support of donald trump. She said blums endorsement of trump was telling. This is a guy who has disparaged nearly every ethnic group, every religious group. Hes been a sexual predator toward women. Blum, turned things around. Hes a crude new york city guy. Ill say as an aside, most americans agree, Hillary Clinton is a pathological liar. Both of them have personality flaws. Polls have shown blum slipping into a dead heat with his opponent. What was once a double digit lead, has dwindled to a one point deficit for the startegies. They point to trump for blums slump. In cedar rapids, Forrest Saunders, kcrgtv9 news.
