89. We should all vote on the same day.
I don't think that we should let two states determine the frontrunner. With the way the media is setup it amounts to giving the media the ability to blackball a candidate.

I have no doubt that Dean would have won if everyone would have voted on the same day. No doubt whatsoever. Elements who feared Dean were able to narrowcast a smear campaign against him in IOWA and NH and after that he was the washed up looser and Kerry was the front runner.

The primary schedule is an impediment to the goal of a true democratic candidate.
