It sounded like it was good in the "olden days" when you actually found out who the candidate was going to be DURING the convention. Now it's a big deal if they wait til then to announce the VP candidate.
I like the idea of a rotating primary system where it's set up so that different states get to be earlier each election. (And Iowa/NH/SC can still go first if that's oh so necessary, I've seen models that do both) Then we could all stop playing the "I'm moving MINE a day earlier" "No ME" "No ME!" game.
