Just a thought. The reason that 'moral slob' doesn't seem to register with ENLs is that the adjective that normally collocates with 'slob' is 'immoral'. And the interesting thing is that, in this case, the adjective doesn't define the noun 'slob' in the way that, say, 'big' does, which makes one's slobbiness/slobbitude larger, more pronounced.
Using 'immoral' simply adds an extra insult. He is both immoral and a slob.
