4. I just don't understand HOW waiting until NH would have made a difference.
1. He flies down to NH
2. He doesn't get to debate.
3. How else could his voice reach tens of thousands of people?

Also, with the huge younger voter turnout in IA, he realized there was a whole demographic group that he hadn't focused on enough, and every indication was that the same situation would occur in NH -- and around the country, possibly.

That being said, it would have been nice to see what happened if he'd waited.

I wonder what the deciding factor was for him to withdraw when he did....
