Coming down the home stretch, what do you think, are the caucuses a good thing, or total overkill?

Are you ready for this to be over, or do you feel like you’re just getting started? Do you wish Iowa was important to everyone else more than once every 4 years? How many residents do we have downtown right now that will disappear on January 4?
I actually GO to the caucus and I have learned a lot about the political process. It is very exciting to have a say in what your party will stand for. Plan to go this year–you will meet your neighbors and peers who believe and vote the way you do.
If I could change one thing about the political process in this state, it would not be the caucus! It would be to make it illegal to advertise a politician or a political statement until 60 or 90 days before the caucus. I am sick to death of listening to the same prattle, day in and day out. It is the SAME EVERY DAY. I have not heard anything fresh yet. I don’t ever choose who I vote for because of TV anyway, so I hate the intrusion.
I like having the extra people in town. If they aren’t impressed with Iowa and our political savvy, they aren’t looking.
