Next To Responsibility, Iowa Sucks Second Most

Just to let everyone know that I think the whole Iowa caucus crap is for the birds. There is no reason that this stupid caucus should be receiving the attention it's receiving from the media. But leave it to the media to misrepresent something.

I just don't understand how 120,000 people can even be close to a measure for a president of a nation of over 300 million.

Just to reinforce my beliefs, here's a selective recap of what Iowa has given us:

1972 Edmund Muskie
1976 Jimmy Carter
1980 Jimmy Carter
1984 Walter Mondale
1988 Dick Gephardt
1992 Tom Harkin
2000 George W. Bush
2004 John Kerry

The Iowa caucus is useless for democracy. It's really not even democracy at all.
