But it fits my narrative!

Sincere question (I dont mean to argue, I couldn't find Iowa on an unmarked map, and certainly know less than you about it);
Do think there are any negative consequences to having the nation's first caucus?

My narrative stems from think-pieces about rotating the early-voting-states to limit the negative influences of excessive campaigning by idealogues.

Edit: This was the best link I could find on the matter.

There's plenty of complaints that Iowa has an disproportionate influence, but that's not my question.
