I think that Iowans (and yes, I have been there) like straight talk. I think A LOT of people like honest, forthright arguments. I may not always agree with every single one of Bernie's positions, but whenever I hear his argument, I RESPECT his reasoning and fearless honesty. It will be a sad day if he gets crushed by the Kochs and the corporations.
