Geist explained how Bloom has been "in hiding" since writing a scathing article in The Atlantic attacking Iowa as, "An assortment of waste-toids and meth addicts with pale skin and rotted teeth or those who quixotically believe, like Little Orphan Annie, that the sun will come out tomorrow." Bloom also ranted: "Those who stay in rural Iowa are often the elderly waiting to die."

Four years ago, these "waste-oids and meth addicts" launched The Obamessiah's campaign, while handing the Hildebeest a solid thrashing -- she even trailed the Silky Pony.

I wonder what Andrea Mitchell, Stephen Bloom and NBC thought about Iowans back then...

Note: Born in New Jersey, Bloom attended the University of California, Berkeley, and received a B.A. in Journalism in 1973.
