Caucuses and Carcases

Now that the Iowa Caucus is over, Michelle is gone and Rick is teetering on his own brink...
I think its time to review the democratic process here in the good ole US of A.  When the founding fathers came up with the methods we currently use to determine our respective presidential candidates I don't think they envisioned 20,000 hours of nonstop 24 hour per day television coverage for one state caucus in which approximately 115,000 Iowa folk voted for their favorite Republican.  Most of us don't really care what hair spray Michelle uses or whether Ron Paul trimmed his nose hair today.  I think most of us will go insane if we have to endure this rate of TV coverage for the rest of the primary season and do we really want insane votes picking the next commander in chief. 

I have a plan.  1 state per day for the big guys, California,  New York, Illinois etc.  Then we double and triple up on the smaller guys like Wyoming and New Mexico, all of New England and snap, crackle, pop, were done in under a month.
My guess is that I could sell this to both sides with no problem.
