Iowa picked total duds in 2008 and 2012. Let's hear about New Hampshire, they voted for the eventual nominee those same two cycles, while Iowa was picking corn.
maybe NH picked the nominee, but they picked losers. The only time the GOP wins is when the SC winner gets the nomination.

***********************************
They need to abandon that antiquated caucus system! It permits voters to intimidate each other, face to face, and suffer the wrath of one side or the other if they vote in a way that’s different from the bullies.
No Huck, Jeb, Rand, Marc or Bobby (the last two are not eligible, anyway, as their parents were foreign citizens when they were born).
Right, Iowa was picking corn in January.
Anyway do you really think the purpose is to guess who the ultimate winner will be? Iowa's role has always been to winnow the field, not to "pick the winner." We pare the field down to 3-5 candidates so everyone else can pick the winner from a manageable field rather than from the 9-12 we'll start with.
