Former eastern Iowa Congressman Dave Nagle, a Waterloo attorney, says the news of the Iowa caucuses’ demise is premature. The Democratic National Committee’s rulemakers on the presidential nominating calendar have voted to strip Iowa of the first-in-the-nation status. But Iowa law dictates that the state hold the kickoff caucuses, and that is just what Democrats should do, Nagle said in a phone call.
It's not 1984 anymore. There is no reason for viable presidential candidates to risk DNC sanctions (including being excluded from televised debates) in order to campaign here.
Iowa Democratic Party leaders need to accept reality and not spend years chasing the dream.
