12. No, it is true.
Many voters in other states pay a lot of attention to the issues, so that is a straw man argument. Iowa does not always get it right, but this time, with the newly energized folks entering the fray.....they sure did speak with a loud voice. Two, no actually 3, if you count NY, states were pretty much in the Dean camp before Iowa, with larger populations, much larger.

I think letting one state have that much power is wrong, especially when you change the rules and frontload the primaries. I think that happened in 02, or maybe just after 00. A McAuliffe thing.
