Just out of curiosity, Mrs. Greenspan, how does the racial makeup of Iowa compare to that of NBC News?

Iowa is 60% urban and has no greater percentage of evangelicals than the national average. Andrea must be prejudiced.

Calling this clown a reporter is the same as calling Herr Dr, a journalist.

Andrea must be prejudiced. Of course she is...like all her comrades in the state-run media; she hates conservative whites, gun owners, and Christians.

Blah, blah Andrea; we have heard it all before. Funny story (at least I thought so!).
Back in 2004 my company planned a trip out of town for some of us. We flew out of the Des Moines airport. It was the day after the 2004 caucus and it was of course packed. All the media types were there moving on.
I had never seen so many people so ready to leave!
I was just laughing to myself thinking of the media from the large markets such as New York and Los Angeles and they were probably thinking they were escaping from somewhere!
Many people just don't get what it's like in a small state. That's good!

Bingo! And gun ownership is for minorities only, provided they just kill each other.

I notice she did the usual “there are some who say” which basically translates to “the person sitting next to me on the bus”.
