Yesterday's Times report from Iowa was produced to an Allman Brothers soundtrack.
The newspaper's bureau in Des Moines is a conference room on the third floor of a building which, in the large banquet room immediately through the wall, had booked Ron Paul's fifth-place victory party.Hillary-beat reporter Pat Healy said that "one second it's the quiet hum" of computers clicking and then at the next moment the Allman Brothers came blasting through the room. He said it was distracting.
