Joe Biden made a campaign stop in Ottumwa, Iowa this past week. I know Ottumwa quite well. I taught and coached at the high school from 1971-74. It had then and still has a population of 30,000 mostly blue collar workers.
At this particular campaign stop a grand total of 98 people showed up to listen to the front runner.
This is so embarrassing it boggles the mind. I'm certain he isn't worried. Every other candidate runs into the same thing. Maybe Iowans don't care. Maybe it's because this nonsense of campaigning has been going on for three years and the folks are more interested in what the Hawkeyes will do in the Holiday Bowl.
