There’s an age-old quip about candidates on the campaign trail “shaking hands and kissing babies,” but who could have predicted that sitting down to pizza and fried chicken would make that list, too?
In Iowa in the last six months alone, there have been more than 35 Pizza Ranch stops by presidential hopefuls Michele Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, Rick Perry and Rick Santorum.
Bachmann is the most frequent Pizza Ranch visitor tallying more than 21 stops herself, sometimes two to three different locations a day.
Why? Is it the friend chicken? The all-you-can-eat buffet? Or is there some greater meaning to a candidate stopping by this western-themed pizza joint.
