Iowa Shmiowa...

[LuvLoogie]

I know who I am going to vote for. That might change. I may vote for Amy by the time the campaign gets to Illinois' CLOSED PRIMARY.

The disaster is for Iowans and Iowans alone. Shrug it off, Democrats. Let the media have their kerfuffle. You might as well design an app for the Amish to make butter better.

But that said, I think that the campaigns should be nonchalant about it and just say. "Well, I think the Iowa caucus has seen its day. You can't shoe horn some Gen-Xer's side gig into a barn dance."

Treat yourself to a nice lunch, Dems.

1. "The disaster is for Iowans and Iowans alone."

I'm an Iowan and couldn't agree more.

Here's what I want. . .
No caucuses.
Closed primaries.
Rotating primaries among groups of states.
One person - one vote - end the Electoral College.

2. I like the rotating primaries idea.

I would eliminate the electoral college as a last step. Wouldn't that require a constitutional amendment?

The primary changes can be done at the party level. I can't see getting to an electoral change in the next 20 years without taking the whole constitution down.

3. Our primary system is an 'electoral college', maybe we should lead by example

[LuvLoogie]

5. I think you have more support for ending caucuses

and closing primaries than you do for ending the delegates. Politically, rotating the primaries, is an equitable move and would generate more enthusiasm for all the primaries. Iowa and New Hampshire can join Super Tuesday or another block of regional primaries.

9. The Electoral College will never be abolished

It gives the small states power and would need a constitutional amendment to change it. They would never support it.

4. Disaster for everyone. Gives Trump more ammo on elections can't be trusted.

And if elections can't be trusted, why have them?

Or if they can't be trusted why should he leave?

[LuvLoogie]

7. Really? Fuck trump and his pantsless horde.

I don't care what they have to say about Democrats. Move on. Show some confidence.

6. Ever hear the saying, "Perception is reality"?

This disaster is for everyone.

[LuvLoogie]

8. They'll get the count and New Hampshire and SC will be next.

The world turns.

11. Except for when it doesn't.

Ask Howard Dean.

10. Being contrary, I think it might be worst for Biben.... it's become coming a death watch

...’how bad did Biden do?’ Is the question.

No bounce up for the others as it’s blurry, but Biden’s loss is being magnified
