Charles City? A nice little blip on the Iowa map. It also bills itself as “America’s Hometown,” as do many other places across the country (we see their stupid sign every time we drive by on the way to St. Louis). But is it possible, as good Minnesotans, to actually root for someone from Iowa?

Update: Turns out Jacque Berg is originally from Minnesota. So we do have a stake in this after all.
