For about 30 seconds before speaking he simply stood, head back, smiling, relishing the cheers and chants of "Go Johnny, go" from the more than 100 steel workers who planned on spending the remaining few days leading up to the Iowa caucuses working the phone lines to convince as many Iowans as they can to support the former North Carolina Senator...
