So your claim is you saw a "flying saucer" that was clearly visible from a road, but neither you nor any other motorist thought it was interesting enough to pull over and take a picture of.

Sure.

And you didn't take a photo on video because you are the only person on earth who doesn't have a cell phone.

The purpose of campaigns in NH from a strategy point is not to "win NH". That's not actually important. What is important is to "not lose NH". The person who comes in first in NH doesn't always go on to be the nominee, but the person who comes in last in NH almost never does.

The candidates who come in last and pull single digit numbers will be seen as having forgettable, disorganized campaigns and will have staff leave and donations dry up. Having an early primary prunes a lot of unviable candidates and keeps them from splitting the vote down the line.
