Do Iowa Caucuses Matter Anymore?
As the GOP looks to defeat an African American president who mobilized record numbers of young and minority voters four years ago, how relevant are the preferences of 200,000 or so caucus goers in a rural state that is overwhelmingly white and significantly older than average?Flyover country never mattered before, why should it matter now? For the past nine presidential elections, Iowa has reveled in the attention it gets with its position at the front of the presidential nominating contest. This time around, the question is not just who will win the Iowa caucuses but also whether it will matter. Past history, future speculation at the link. Posted by: Bobby 2011-05-30 |
