Why South Carolina Matters to the Republican Party

and why Nevada doesn't.

UNLV College Republican Mitchell Cain discusses the title, but not the snarky addition, to this post in his first contribution at Truth About Bills.

I am opposed to the national primary Cain endorses but I'm not so wild about the current system, either. Iowa and New Hampshire have an outsized role, as he points out, in selecting the Republican (and the Democrat, for that matter) nominee for President. Other states that are more reflective of the views and values of each party have far less influence than these perennial first primary/caucus states and probably should be moved in line ahead of these two.
