How do you think it should be set up?
And how do you think it will be set up? Will anything change?
I don't suppose much will change at all, but I hope and I pray that the parties will decide to push back the primary schedule. This campaign started too soon at full intensity after the 2006 congressional elections and has already dominated the national agenda for more than a year, stifling action by Congress and the White House. How about a primary season that begins in early April and finishes around mid-June? I'm thinking they should hold the Iowa caucus in early April, followed a week later by New Hampshire, then about 5 or 6 primaries/caucuses each week. These mini-Super Tuesdays could conform to a version of the so-called Delaware plan, with smaller states going first and larger ones later. But, Dear God, they have to stop the madness with these 2 year campaigns!
