It's Iowa. Aka who gives a shit.

Can you really read much into a state that has selected Buchannon, Bush, Huckabee, Santorum, Cruz in their last five nominating contests. The dem side is a little better at siding with the eventual winner, but I don't think that's causal. Iowa is irrelevant.

Not once have I complained about the choices of Iowa, that's an irrelevant point when all I'm trying to do is point out the state that the system is in. What if those choices were more accurate / causal to the general election? Then would people care more about a process that makes little sense and has little representation?
