The Carpetbagger Report writes that "the Iowa caucuses are much too silly" and calls them "a secretive, undemocratic process, that avoids democratic norms, and discourages participation."
Reuters, in an editorial roundup, provided this description for the event: "a double distortion mirror."
Ruth Marcus, for the Washington Post, asked, "Who elected Iowa?"
And finally, the Pensito Review claims that "the Iowa caucuses, like the electoral college, are irrelevant." Well, I'm not sure irrelevant is quite the right word, but I appreciate the token opposition.
Anyway, I think I've finally reached burnout on this issue. On to New Hampshire!
(Apologies to Wyoming, from one inconsequential state to another.)
