"Iowa does three things. We grow corn, we go to state fairs, and we caucus," Jordan Lampe told me inside Dwolla's Des Moines office.

The Uncaucus was also an opportunity for Reddit's Internet 2012 bus to shut down a major bridge for the evening and meet some concerned and politically active Iowans in the shadow of the Iowa State Capitol building.
