That might make more sense. I do sometimes enjoy watching them in the small states first because they actually have to go out and meet people in largely unscripted settings. In the larger states it's all rallies, structured debates, and talk show appearances.

We even learn from their reactions to guys like Mr. "Don't Tase Me 'Bro".

I'm just annoyed that usually after Super Tuesday, there's no choice left. Of course, if it goes into extra innings after then because there is no clear winner, things will get interesting. Pennsylvania with our 181 Democratic delegates(151 'pledged') makes us the largest after Texas and one of the latest. After PA, it's North Carolina with 110 and the other 8 states totaling 344. This makes PA the largest before sliding down to the dregs. If Super Tuesday and Texas don't resolve this, PA will be treated to an unprecedented amount of ass-kissing.

A similar situation exists in the Republican primary, but with PA having less of a gap between the other states.
