Reply #36: Transparency in the process.

If you don't want people to know who you support, then you won't be volunteering, contributing money, writing on discussion boards (grin), LTTE. If you don't want people to know who you support, in short, you (figuratively) probably don't feel strongly enough to go through the caucus exercise at all. Some would say that is bad, I say it is good.

On the other hand, if you DO want to brave the Iowa cold, stand up for your candidate, encourage others to join you in a public manner... well, then I for one, value your opinion more than someone who potentially flipped a coin before entering the voting booth-- or a Republican who switched parties because there weren't any contests on their ballot.
