Standing his ground, Terry Branstad lectured to folk from the community and also to students at Morningside College. Branstad gave his views on Iowa’s budget, healthcare, and various other subjects. His number 1 reason for returning to the governor’s office was that he loved Iowa and didn’t like what was happening in Iowa with the budget cuts and unemployment.
His attack against Chet Culver was “Chulver’s view is politics, not policy.”
When Branstad entered office the first time, unemployment in Iowa was 8.6% and when he left office, unemployment was 2.5%. Yes that is a large difference and he is using facts and statistics like that in order to promote why he is a better choice than Culver.

Good Lead.
Lecture has a certain connotation. I would use “spoke.”
