1. No

A lot of people will always consider us rubes, hillbillies, whatever, but I have taken the attitude that we don't really need those who put us down. We who are Iowans know that this is a good place to be. And quite honestly, I'm not sure we need some of those "city slickers" out this way anyway.

4. Well, do I at least get to be condescending

to all those coastal pricks who seem to forget that us midwesterners were the ones that pretty much made Obama our candidate. And for all their alleged enlightenment, that we're the state that's going to have equal marriage rights for everyone for quite some time.
