DES MOINES, Iowa — The VonSpreckens are back on the Giuliani bandwagon.The VonSpreckens, self-described poor farmers from the tiny eastern Iowa community of Olin, became big critics of presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani after his campaign snubbed them because they weren't millionaires.
But after learning of the matter in media reports, the former New York City mayor made a hasty visit to Olin to apologize in person.
"He is sincere," Deborah VonSprecken said Tuesday. "I looked in his eyes. He is truthful. He is a down to earth, grassroots gentleman."

Giuliani's visit impressed the couple enough that the VonSpreckens agreed to chair the Jones County campaign for Giuliani.
