WELLS, Minn. — Michael Bloomberg walked among the silos, bundled and reddening in the nine-degree air, negotiating the icy path that delivers a billionaire presidential candidate past the grain bins and the cameras and the tractor — straight into the middle of somewhere his advisers decided he should be.
It is not quite, as admirers present it, that Bloomberg is a chess-master whose opponents play checkers; he is more accurately working to bury the board with a gusher of cash so overpowering that everyone forgets how the game was always played in the first place. In an election season where the wisdom of the traditional early-state calendar has been questioned as never before, the travels of this maybe-president may register as eminently reasonable when set against a system that compels candidates to celebrate themselves for touching down in all of Iowa’s 99 counties for some reason.
“It’s nice to be able to stand behind a candidate you truly believe in,” said Eric Zollinger, 45, a current Chicago resident who lived in New York for all 12 of Bloomberg’s years as mayor. He wore a shirt and button that read, “I Like Mike.”
