Hopefully, this will put a stop to this Iowa straw-poll nonsense. This race for “relevence” among the states in the nomination process, is going to destroy grass roots politics and put the capstone on annointment by big-money and the MSM (like it needs one).
The Iowa Straw Poll and Iowa Caucuses are the best defense against the big money and MSM machines. If we were to go to a "national primary" as some suggest, candidates without huge money would be completely unable to compete.
