The questions were simple, such as "Today you're having your first town hall meeting since January - what are you expecting?" and "Shouldn't all Iowans have a voice at the table?" But for some reason Blum was getting tenser and tenser. And then the question that made him snap: "Would you still take donations from a Republican?"

The schoolchildren surrounding Blum were brought there per his request. Great role model, Blum!
