Kerry only won the campaign because he won Iowa.  I think there should have been caucuses in every state (many undecided voters) at the same time and then the field would be whittled down to four.  Then you'd have a primary to bring the number down to two, and then a final one.  When Kerry won Iowa, New Hampshire went from Dean to Kerry because the Dems wanted to rally behind their leader.  This made it especially hard for Edwards to win the nomination even though he was a better campaigner, and got more Independents, Republicans, and Dean supporters.
