The Dems had better recognize that the Iowa Caucus has Got.Ta.Go. I’m in total agreement with Americans who view last night as an “unmitigated disaster.”

Btw- WHY, pray tell, is the DNC still supporting “a quaint tradition” of a small, 90% + White state that’s NOT in any way, shape or form representative of the Dem party?…that disenfranchises a lot of White voters? and keeps turning out the ‘Same Old White Crew.’ The only exceptions being Obama’s historical run in 2008 and 2012.

The truth is, after Obama’s 2 runs, Iowa reverted back to what it’s always been, mostly meaningless. And even during Obama’s runs THIS should have been acknowledged by all reasonably intelligent folk:

‘Caucuses are outdated and irrational. Replace them with primaries.’

Iowa’s first-in-the-nation presidential nominating event, scheduled for Feb. 3, 2020, is a fossil: an outdated and irrational system”…. Instead of trying to engineer a way around the fact that caucuses are awful ways to select presidential candidates, Iowa and every other caucus state should simply switch to holding primary votes.[…] – The Washington Post, Sept. 2, 2019

Yep. I have to admit, with Biden’s weak showing last night in Iowa, and Bernie running as hard as he can -As A Socialist – it is beginning to look like Bloomberg may actually have a real chance to beat whoever and win the nomination.

We shall see.
