Interpreting Iowa

  • and said:

“A win in Iowa doesn’t mean anything.”

I don’t understand why everyone hates the Iowa caucuses. Do you think Iowa people don’t have good judgement? Would you be saying the same thing if it were a different state? If it were YOUR state?

What is this argument really about? Why do others say the caucus is ‘undemocratic’? What is your idea of democracy?

What puts you in a good position to interperet what happened in Iowa, anyway? Do we really need another expert opinion on this whole thing?

Christ.

Thank you for the reminder. In Iowa City, where I live, we have a sister-store to City Lights called Prairie Lights. It is easy to forget, however, in the liberal oasis that is Iowa City, that Prairie Lights is not the norm, and that it is something to be valued and treasured.
